The sanitisation regex now catches more classes of hidden characters in text.

Details
  • previously matched only default-ignorable code points
  • now also matches control, format, private-use and unassigned categories, plus line and paragraph separators and backslash

\p{Default_Ignorable_Code_Point}

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
