Fix conversion of SIMILAR TO regexes for character classes
The code that translates SIMILAR TO pattern matching expressions to
POSIX-style regular expressions did not consider that square brackets
can be nested. For example, in an expression like [[:alpha:]%_], the
logic replaced the placeholders '_' and '%' but it should not.
This commit fixes the conversion logic by tracking the nesting level of
square brackets marking character class areas, while considering that
in expressions like []] or [^]] the first closing square bracket is a
regular character. Multiple tests are added to show how the conversions
should or should not apply applied while in a character class area, with
specific cases added for all the characters converted outside character
classes like an opening parenthesis '(', dollar sign '$', etc.
