000e7792bd* fix: replace double-brace splitting regex with state-machine parser
The previous re.split(r'{{|}}', ...) call split on any occurrence of
{{ or }} in the input string, which broke strings whose only }} came
from closing two nested LaTeX brace groups (e.g. ^{\frac{Mq}{M+m}}).
The new _split_double_braces() static method uses a character-level
state machine with three guards:
* Escape priority: \\ is consumed before \{ / \}, so \\}} is
correctly read as an escaped backslash followed by a real }}, not
misinterpreted as \ + \} + lone }.
* Whitespace-gated opener: {{ is only treated as a Manim group opener
at the start of the string or after whitespace. Naturally-occurring
{{ in LaTeX is usually preceded by non-whitespace (e.g. \frac{{{n}}}
or a^{{2}}), so this eliminates the most common false positives.
* Depth-tracking closer: inside a Manim group, }} only closes the
group when the inner brace depth is zero, so {{ a^{b^{c}} }} is
handled correctly and nested LaTeX }} cannot trigger an early close.
Fixes #4601.
* docs: document double-brace whitespace requirement
Add a Notes section to the MathTex docstring explaining:
- how {{ }} splits a string into submobjects
- that {{ must be at start-of-string or preceded by whitespace
- that this leaves natural LaTeX like \frac{{{n}}}{k} untouched
- the { { ... } } escape hatch when a split is not wanted
Apply the same explanation to the double-brace paragraph in
docs/source/guides/using_text.rst.
* fix: use r-string for _split_double_braces docstring, halve backslash escaping
