It's deeper than just shells. It's also in the "canonical" processing
layer of the terminal driver.
unicorn:~$ stty -a | grep lnext
werase = ^W; lnext = ^V; discard = ^O; min = 1; time = 0;
unicorn:~$ man stty | grep -A1 lnext
* lnext CHAR
CHAR will enter the next character quoted
unicorn:~$ man termios | grep -A3 VLNEXT
VLNEXT (not in POSIX; 026, SYN, Ctrl-V) Literal next (LNEXT). Quotes
the next input character, depriving it of a possible special
meaning. Recognized when IEXTEN is set, and then not passed as
input.
You can see its behavior, for example, by running "cat" with no
arguments in a terminal. Type some stuff, then press Ctrl-V and Enter,
and you should see ^M (a token representing a carriage return) in your
typed input.
Shells don't operate in canonical mode, but they emulate this feature
because it's useful and expected.
