Patch to fix this issue

Some projects need to pass multiple filters to open/save file dialogs. See e.g. this: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=109913 . But kdialog doesn't appear to support them because any line feeds are translated into spaces by command interpreter, and "\n" just isn't a line feed.
I'm attaching a simple patch which would allow to use "filter1\nfilter2" to pass filter1 and filter2 filters to the dialog.
