Do not interpret backslashes when reading passwords
The `read` builtin accepts backslash notation for common non-printing characters by default, like `\t` and `\n`. This requires that any literal backslashes must also be escaped as `\\`. Given that `gpg -e` does not interpret input, the `read` invocations are changed to do the same. Also, the right hand side of an `==` comparison within `[[ ]]` must be quoted in order to suppress pattern metacharacter expansion. Quoting the bash manual: When the == and != operators are used, the string to the right of the operator is considered a pattern and matched according to the rules described below under Pattern Matching.
