brace-expansion v4.0.0 breaks expansion with brackets #87
Description
The performance improvement done in 278132b broke expansion of strings including brackets.
t.test("bracket", t => {
t.plan(1)
const exp = expand("src/{\\[ui\\],abc}/*.ts")
// fails, actual is ["src/.ui./*.ts", "src/abc/*.ts"]
t.same(exp, ["src/\\[ui\\]/*.ts", "src/abc/*.ts"])
})This is inconsistent with how bash works:
$ echo src/{\\[ui\\],abc}/*.ts
src/\[ui\]/*.ts src/abc/*.tsReacted by Rogger Valverde, crimson-cata1yst and Anders Kaseorg

Related - there is a benchmark script referenced in package.json that I wanted to run after making this change, but it doesn't appear to have been committed to the repository.
