    Fix multiple confusingly escaped regex strings · 9c062012
    Bruce Dawson authored
    Python (prior to 3.8) treats meaningless string escape sequences as if
    they were a slash followed by the character. That is, '\w' == '\\w'.
    Python 3.8 rejects this, and it's confusing. This change fixes seven of these
    regex strings found in depot_tools (through a regex search, natch). Most of
    the fixes don't actually change the value of the strings, and this was
    manually verified:
    
    >>> '(/c(/.*/\+)?)?/(\d+)(/(\d+)?/?)?$' == r'(/c(/.*/\+)?)?/(\d+)(/(\d+)?/?)?$'
    True
    >>> '#\s*OWNERS_STATUS\s+=\s+(.+)$' == r'#\s*OWNERS_STATUS\s+=\s+(.+)$'
    True
    >>> 'COM\d' == r'COM\d'
    True
    >>> '^\s+Change-Id:\s*(\S+)$' == r'^\s+Change-Id:\s*(\S+)$'
    True
    >>> 'ETag:\s+([a-z0-9]{32})' == r'ETag:\s+([a-z0-9]{32})'
    True
    
    Two exceptions were the regex expressions in filter_demo_output.py and scm.py.
    These were turned into raw strings despite this changing the value of the
    string passed to re. This works because re supports the \x, \d, \w, \t, and
    other escape sequences needed to make this work.
    
    TL;DR - use raw strings for regex to avoid melting your brain. If bulk changing
    regex strings to raw watch out for double-slashes.
