Allow brackets inside Tekton expressions

We were previously using a regex to extract expressions within
TriggerBindings. The regex only extracted between the initial `$(`
and the first occurrence of the `)`. This meant that some valid
JSONPath expressions that contained brackets (e.g. filters) were
incorrectly extracted.

This commit fixes the issue by splitting the string on `$(` and then
extracting until the first "unbalanced" occurrence of `)`.

Fixes tektoncd#365
