Backport upstream commit f08ab2f4d7d2 to fix CVE-2026-47162,
a code injection vulnerability in netrw's NetrwBookHistSave()
function. The fix replaces unsafe string concatenation with
the string() function for safe quoting of directory names
when saving bookmark history. A new test file
(test_plugin_netrw.vim) is included to verify the fix.
