If the key of the object contains control characters, delete () of s3.Bucket.objectsCollection fails.

Is there a way to delete these objects while avoiding any errors while using batch delete?

reproduce

• upload new object which include /\x10 in file name.
• try batch delete with s3.Bucket.objectsCollection

objs = bucket.objects.filter(Prefix="path/to/includes_escape")
for obj in objs.all():
    print(repr((obj.key)))

-->
'path/to/includes_escape/\x10\x10\x10\x10\x10\x10\x10foo.jpg'
'path/to/includes_escape/\x10\x10\x10\x10\x10\x10\x10bar.jpg'

objs.delete()

--> ClientError: An error occurred (MalformedXML) when calling the DeleteObjects operation: The XML you provided was not well-formed or did not validate against our published schema

environment

• aws lambda python 3.7
• boto3==1.9.42
