Filename error with unexpected escape in --exec on Windows

[TroyDanielFZ]

When use the --exec command on windows, the {} isn't properly replaced for files start with rvbt etc under folders.
The expected result is:

folder\thread.txt
folder\var.txt

while the actaul reslt is:

folder^thread.txt
folder^Kar.txt

where the ^t and ^K are control keycodes.

This isn't the same thing as #310, is it?
If it is, try using e.g. fd -x <command> "{}" as mentioned here.

@TroyDanielFZ Thank you for reporting this, and thanks for resolving it @evanjs.

It feels like something that should be documented. Maybe we could modify the help text on Windows to add a remark about needing to quote {}?

By the way: note that you can always skip a trailing {} argument. fd … -x cmd is equivalent to fd … -x cmd "{}".
