Subject: [PATCH] tools: bootconfig:  Regex brackets need escape

It was showing malformed syntax colors below those lines,escaping the posix
class brackets bring back the syntatic reference back.

Oh, malformed syntax colors means,(in a editor,in this case Vim, where syntax
highlight is on). In essence, it might complain while running the script.

Hence, this trivialities.
