The range `A-aa-z` was too permissive and includes special characters between `Z` and `a`. Low impact, but fix to address an internally reported code scanning alert.

Pull Request Overview
This PR tightens regex character class ranges in the QLDoc parsing script to remove unintended special characters and address a security alert.
- Updated three regex patterns to use
[A-Za-z0-9]instead of the overly broad[A-aa-z0-9]. - No change in behavior beyond narrowing allowed class name characters.

[nitpick] Consider extracting the common character class [A-Za-z0-9]+ into a shared constant to reduce duplication and simplify future updates.
