DeprecationWarning invalid escape sequence

vbuild/__init__.py:230: DeprecationWarning: invalid escape sequence '\*'

Line 230 in 6b266fd

css = re.sub(re.compile("/\*.*?\*/", re.DOTALL), "", css)

This is being promoted to a SyntaxWarning in Python 3.12:

• https://docs.python.org/3.12/whatsnew/3.12.html#other-language-changes

A backslash-character pair that is not a valid escape sequence now generates a SyntaxWarning, instead of DeprecationWarning. For example, re.compile("\d+.\d+") now emits a SyntaxWarning ("\d" is an invalid escape sequence), use raw strings for regular expression: re.compile(r"\d+.\d+"). In a future Python version, SyntaxError will eventually be raised, instead of SyntaxWarning. (Contributed by Victor Stinner in gh-98401.)

This will break in a future Python release when this is promoted to a SyntaxError.
