Replaces NO_STRING_ESCAPES by TC_STRING_ESCAPES

Currently there is no way to disable/enable string escaping by backslash from
command line. Most of targers enables string escaping, but two are not (z80 and
ppc-coff). Implementing support for Z80-ELF target I cannot pass much of GAS
and LD tests because most of them use backslash escaping inside strings (mostly
.ascii "...\0").
Current patch replaces NO_STRING_ESCAPES by macro TC_STRING_ESCAPES. By default
if not defined it equals to 1. For targets Z80 and PPC-COFF it is defined to 0.
But it can be defined as function call. So it is more flexible as current way.
