#34578: Template filter `join` should not escape the joining string even if
`autoescape` is `off`

Consider the following template code snippet:
{{{
{% autoescape off %}
{{ some_list|join:some_var }}
{% endautoescape %}
}}}
in this case, the items inside `some_list` will not be escaped (matching
the expected behavior) but `some_var` will forcibly be escaped. From the
docs for `autoescape` or `join` I don't think this is expected behavior.
The following testcase illustrates what I think is a bug in the `join`
filter (run inside the `template_tests/filter_tests` folder):
{{{
#!python
from django.template.defaultfilters import escape
from django.test import SimpleTestCase
from ..utils import setup
class RegressionTests(SimpleTestCase):
@setup({"join01": '{{ some_list|join:some_var }}'})
def test_join01(self):
some_list = ["<p>Hello World!</p>", "beta & me",
"<script>Hi!</script>"]
some_var = "<br/>"
output = self.engine.render_to_string("join01", {"some_list":
some_list, "some_var": some_var})
self.assertEqual(output, escape(some_var.join(some_list)))
@setup({"join02": '{% autoescape off %}{{ some_list|join:some_var }}{%
endautoescape %}'})
def test_join02(self):
some_list = ["<p>Hello World!</p>", "beta & me",
"<script>Hi!</script>"]
some_var = "<br/>"
output = self.engine.render_to_string("join02", {"some_list":
some_list, "some_var": some_var})
self.assertEqual(output, some_var.join(some_list))
}}}
Result of this run in current `main` is:
{{{
