1c765f2b11 fix(test): make the ToS heading guard actually require the parentheses
CodeQL js/useless-regexp-character-escape (#994-#997) on one line, and it is a
real defect rather than the usual query noise.

The assertion built its pattern in a TEMPLATE literal:

    new RegExp(`\(\s*${String(tos?.actual)}\s*\)`)

JavaScript resolves the escapes before RegExp ever sees the string: `\(` becomes
"(" and `\s` becomes the LETTER "s". The compiled pattern was `(s*16s*)` — a
capture group around optional "s" characters — so it matched any heading merely
CONTAINING the number. The literal parentheses this guard exists to require were
never checked, and it passed on exactly the headings it was written to reject:

    /(s*16s*)/.test("### Caution — clauses worth checking 16")   // true

Doubled the backslashes so they survive the template literal, and routed the
interpolated value through an `escapeRegExp` helper — the count is a number
today, but interpolating an unescaped value into a regex source is the same
class of bug one refactor away.

Added a second test that pins the behaviour rather than the spelling: the
pattern must REJECT a heading carrying the count without parentheses, and accept
it with them (including inner whitespace). Before this fix that test fails.

4/4 green against the real docs/reference/FREE_TIERS.md heading.
