fix: broaden phonetic bracket regex to catch Tesseract-garbled IPA

Tesseract mangles IPA square brackets into curly braces or parentheses
(e.g. China [ˈtʃaɪnə] → China {'tfatno]). The previous regex only
matched [...], missing all garbled variants.

- Match any bracket type: [...], {...}, (...) including mixed pairs
- Add _is_meaningful_bracket_content() to preserve legitimate German
  prefixes like (zer)brechen and Tanz(veranstaltung)
- Trigger IPA replacement on any bracket character, not just [
