fix: escape parens and braces in fork bomb regex pattern

The fork bomb regex used `()` (empty capture group) and unescaped `{}`
instead of literal `\(\)` and `\{\}`. This meant the classic fork bomb
`:(){ :|:& };:` was never detected. Also added `\s*` between `:` and
`&` and between `;` and trailing `:` to catch whitespace variants.
