Description

Saxon-JS reports "unmatched ')'" in a regular expression, caused by failing to ignore ')' characters that appear within a character class (that is, within square brackets).

Shows up in test case analyze-string-097.

When we fix this the test shows a further error, caused by incorrect treatment of escaped hyphens within square brackets: the backslash is being incorrectly removed.

The same test also showed up one further errors: "$" outside square brackets was (for some unfathomable reason) being replaced by "$".

Changes made on the 2.0 branch and the test case is now working.
