Please find attached a patch that resolves the bracketed paste issues
nicely for me.  It does so by setting two environment variables when
initially establishing the remote shell: `EMACS=t`, which bash interprets
to disable line editing, and `TERM=dumb`, which is a better match than the
default interactive terminal type I get.

Google own the copyright on this change, such as it is, but they have
papers on file with the FSF.  (As do I, for TRAMP, though I have not
contributed since 2000 or so, haha.)
