[\[\] ] relies on GNU awk treating backslash as an escape inside bracket expressions. POSIX awk (including busybox) treats backslash literally, causing the regex to silently fail and suppress all output from ready, blocked, ls, and other listing commands. Use [][ ] instead, which is portable across all awk implementations. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Replace non-portable [\[\] ] and [\[\]] with [][ ] and [][] so listing commands (ready, blocked, ls, closed, dep tree, dep cycle, link, show) produce output on POSIX awk implementations like busybox. Ports upstream PR wedow#44 (jtolio). Also fixes ticket-ls plugin which was not covered by upstream.
