Disallow backslash in filenames; filter out spaces

Space characters will break this make·file, so like other characters
which might break it should be filtered out by `find`. Backslashes feel
very fraught, especially under secondary expansion, and should be
dis·allowed for simplicity.

 The former characters have the potential to conflict with make syntax,
