In that case, *every* unescaped brace should be subject to the
deprecation. /^*/ and /^{3}/ both parse as a quantifier on /^/, so /^{/
should be deprecated as looking like an incomplete quantifier, just like
/.{/. /*/ and /{3}/ error as "quantifier follows nothing", so /{/ should
be deprecated as looking like an incomplete quantifier following nothing.
