Replace newline chars with newlines in test report
When the library / app under test returns long error messages on test
failures it will often include newlines. These are today displayed as
`\\n` and we get an error message on one very long line.
This commit turns these newline characters into actual newlines, which
makes the content of the `*cider-test-report*` buffer much more pleasant
to read.
