Fix for adjacent escaped slashes and escaped parentheses in strings

About

The current (string) replacement regexp in formatContent() only backchecked two characters for escaped slashes, so if an escaped slash immediately preceded an escaped parenthesis, the script would incorrectly interpret it as an escaped slash and an unescaped parenthesis. This would lead to the loop never finding the "end" of the string (for an open parenthesis) or finding the end of the string prematurely (for a close parenthesis).

Perform a string replace to get rid of all escaped slashes and then escaped parentheses; they aren't needed when just checking for balanced, unescaped parentheses. Also add removing slashes to the inline images section above for the same reason.

Resolves #709.
