​Actually, COPY FROM will interpret the newlines just fine.  The issue here
is that most other programs that injects csv are not as intelligent and
will look at the \n as content as opposed to a control character.  Those
programs will, however, recognize an actual newline within the quoted field
as being valid data: but it doesn't appear that COPY is capable outputting
such.
