Dired does not work with binary filenames

For example, create such a file with Bash:

touch $'\265'

1. Navigate to the directory containing said file with Dired
2. Mark file for deletion with d
3. x

Yes.  I even sent a message to that effect at the time I pushed the
changes, but I see now that I goofed with the bug address, so neither
the message nor the instruction to close the bug made it to the bug
tracker.  Reproducing the important part below:

   I'd still want Handa-san's review of the patch, but I went ahead and
   pushed it to the emacs-26 branch, and I'm closing the bug.

Thanks for pointing out this blunder.
