[swift-evolution] [Review] SE-0182 - String Newline Escaping

[Jordan Rose]

[Proposal: https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0182-newline-escape-in-strings.md <https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0182-newline-escape-in-strings.md>]

Thanks,
Jordan
