LibRegex/Optimizer: Loop to atomic group rewriter causes regex to not match with escaped brackets around capture group

3 days ago

👍

"__computeMeta(type, key, value)".match(/([^\s]+?)\(([\s\S]*)\)/)

Expected: [ "__computeMeta(type, key, value)", "__computeMeta", "type, key, value" ]
Actual: null

Removing the call to attempt_rewrite_loops_as_atomic_groups in RegexOptimizer fixes this.
Removing the escaped \( and \) will cause it to match.
Reduced from YouTube's JS.
