When lexing a regex literal, treat a prefix operator containing
/
the same as the unapplied infix operator case, where we tentatively lex. This means that we bail if there is no closing/
or the starting character is invalid. This leaves binary operator containing/
in expression position as the last place where we know that we definitely have a regex literal.Additionally, expand the starting
)
character heuristic to cover the entire range of the regex literal, ensuring to take escapes and custom character classes into account. This means we will not lex a regex literal if there is an unbalanced)
somewhere in the body.
