This patch removes unnecessary escape-sequence in (mostly) strings, as a first step, since the ones in regular expressions probably requires more careful testing (just in case). The only exception is a regular expression in `src/core/annotation.js`, since we should have both unit- and reference-tests for this code *and* given [this information on MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions/Character_Classes#Types): > Inside a character set, the dot loses its special meaning and matches a literal dot.
