While we don't support inventory queries yet, this commit extends the reference parser to parse escaped inventory query opening symbols (\$[) the same way as the Python parser, by stripping the \ and producing a literal $[ token. This ensures that escaped inventory queries are parsed correctly by our parser.
Note that our parser doesn't actually parse inventory queries apart from escaped opening symbols. It still just produces a literal token for unescaped inventory queries. Additionally, a double-escaped inventory query is parsed as \ followed by an escaped opening symbol, resulting in a literal token \$[ in the output.
