This PR fixes a bug where list items starting with escaped square brackets (e.g., - [Sample Text]) were incorrectly parsed and rendered as Tasks () instead of normal list items with links.
Previously, the MultiStatusTaskParser used the regular expression /^[([^\]:]+)](?:[ \t]|$)/ to match task states. This regex eagerly ingested escaped bracket sequences like [Sample Text as custom task states.
By updating the regex to /^[([^]:[\]+)](?:[ \t]|$)/ (explicitly rejecting [ and ), we ensure that task states only match valid, plain identifiers like x, , or TODO, safely letting standard Markdown link parsing handle such escaped links properly.
