bug(linter) incorrect fixer for `no-useless-escape`

[camc314]

const regex = /(https?:\/\/github\.com\/(([^\s]+)\/([^\s]+))\/([^\s]+\/)?(issues|pull)\/([0-9]+))|(([^\s]+)\/([^\s]+))?#([1-9][0-9]*)($|[\s\:\;\-\(\=])/;

is being fixed to

const regex = /(https?:\/\/github\.com\/(([^\s]+)\/([^\s]+))\/([^\s]+\/)?(issues|pull)\/([0-9]+))|(([^\s]+)\/([^\s]+))?#([1-9][0-9]*)($|[\s:;-(=])/;

which is an invalid regex

looks like eslint doesn't report an error for this case (escacpe on the \-), but we do.

gonna leave the fixer alone and fix this false positive

minimal test case:

/[\s\-(]/;

update: i think it's going to be better if we wait till the linter has access to the pared regex ast and do it that way, else it's just going to be duplicating some of the regex parsing code

We do now 😁
