 At some point in the shortcode rewrite we lost a feature.

 Previously a shortcode of the form [shortcode value] would work. As of
 4.5.3 it doesn't (I didn't work backwards to see where it broke).

 At line 213 in shortcodes.php the statement
 {{{#!php
 preg_match_all( '@\[([^<>&/\[\]\x00-\x20=]++)@', $content, $matches );
 }}}


 This returns the array `['shortcode value']` rather than `['shortcode']`
 and therefore fails the test looking for known shortcodes.
