A backslash-character pair that is not a valid escape sequence now
generates a DeprecationWarning. Although this will eventually become a
SyntaxError, that will not be for several Python releases.
The problem appears when you use '-W error':
$ python3 -W error -c 'import re; re.findall("[^a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]", " *%$")'
File "<string>", line 1
SyntaxError: invalid escape sequence \-

Strip the following characters
\x1c File Separator
\x1d Group Separator
\x1e Record Separator
\x85 Next Line (C1 Control Code)
from audit message fields to make sure they are not evaluated
as part of some identifier (eg. ausearch used insert \x1d into
--raw output resulting in "unrecognized class" error messages).
This is done as part of str.split() in python3.
