Following the upgrade f38->f40 I started getting warnings and errors. This is 
one.

What is the correct escapes to select strings starting with (AD) and [AD]?

/usr/local/bin/mythtv-fix-descriptions.py:33: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape 
sequence '\['
  re_tag = re.compile ("^[\[(]AD[\])] *")

If I remove the escapes I get:

/usr/local/bin/mythtv-fix-descriptions.py:33: FutureWarning: Possible nested 
set at position 2
  re_tag = re.compile ("^[[(]AD[])] *")

However making it a raw string removes the warning, but will it do the right 
thing?

  re_tag = re.compile (r"^[\[(]AD[\])] *")
