[patch] [rfa] Mark sh xfail for strings test

GAS macros still mishandles macro arguments in strings.  An "\arg1" is
warned for as containing "\a" instead of there being look-ahead to match
the \arg1 macro argument.  This for targets defining ONLY_STANDARD_ESCAPES.

Until there's consensus whether the above is a correct description or
whether ONLY_STANDARD_ESCAPES is bad and wrong in itself, I propose
marking also sh xfail.

Ok to commit?
