Syntax highlighting fails in Python, when raw docstrings with special characters are involved

[avinassh]

Whenever a raw docstring has a special character ( ), even if they are escaped properly, syntax highlighting fails. Following is a valid python script:

def hi(name):
    r""" Say hi!
    (with a \) special characters.
    """
    return 'hi ' + name

print(hi('avi'))

However sublime shows everything as a comment:

Sublime Version: ST3, build 3083.
OS: OS X 10.11.1
To reproduce: Copy the above code snippet in ST and see the highlighting.

+1 I can confirm that this is an issue.

This looks to be fixed in dev build 3095.
