contrib: fix a subtle bug in check-code's regex rewriting We rewrite `\s` to `[ \t]` when preparing our regular expressions, but we previously weren't working to avoid having nested sets. Previously, Python let this slide without incident, but in Python 3.7 wants to make sure you meant an actual [ in a set, and so this warns. This appears to be fortunate for us, because `[\s(]` was getting rewritten to be `[[ \t](]` which doesn't actually match what we expected. See preceding changes that were revealed to be necessary after implementing this fix. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2866
