Unescape special characters in text

If have got some text include \n, \t and the like and need them to become
special characters again, you can use the #unescape_text-method for this.

Background
Given
I use a fixture named "cli-app"
Scenarios
  1. Output contains \n
  2. Output contains \e
  3. Output contains \"
  4. Output contains \033
  5. Output contains \017
  6. Output contains \016
Output contains \n
Given
an executable named "bin/aruba-test-cli" with: 
#!/bin/bash
echo -n 'text\ntext'
And
a file named "spec/unescape_text_spec.rb" with: 
require 'spec_helper'

RSpec.describe 'Run command', :type => :aruba do
  before(:each) { run('cli') }
  before(:each) { stop_all_commands }

  it { expect(unescape_text(last_command.output)).to eq "text\ntext" }
end
When
I run rspec
Then
the specs should all pass
Output contains \e
