Deparse: don't remove escapes for tabs in patterns
In the following, the T represents a literal tab character. /\T/ and /\T/x were being deparsed as /T/ and /T/x. In the particular case of /\T/x that actually changed the pattern's meaning. So don't do that: leave the backslashes alone. This makes ./TEST -deparse t/re/keep_tabs.t pass.
