 Introduced in [18952] was the possibility to escape {{{[shortcode]}}} as
 {{{[[shortcode]]}}}.  Unfortunately, there are several problems with this
 feature:

 * Escaping only works for registered shortcodes.
 * Escaping was never made compatible with wptexturize.
 * Most shortcode features never escape user input. (#15694)

 Test cases:

 {{{["Hello world"]}}} should output {{{[“Hello world”]}}}

 {{{[[example]]}}} should output {{{[example]}}}

 {{{[caption caption="hello [ world"]}}} input is invalid.
