Summary
In the first index of sharedBlacklist variable the regex writed was without scape, it is a path with purpose to exclude react/dist of metro process.

Test plan
Adding the slash scape "\" before slash used in the path
executing react-native start i got it normally

Summary:
**Summary**

On Windows with Node.js v12.x.x, Metro crashes with
```
SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression: /(.*\\__fixtures__\\.*|node_modules[\\\]react[\\\]dist[\\\].*|website\\node_modules\\.*|heapCapture\\bundle\.js|.*\\__tests__\\.*)$/: Unterminated character class
```
This has been reported in #453, facebook/react-native#26829, facebook/react-native#26969, facebook/react-native#26878, facebook/react-native#26598, expo/expo-cli#1147 and expo/expo-cli#1074.

There are a few open pull requests attempting to fix this same issue:
* #464
* #461
* #458
* #454

However, none of the existing PRs address the *root cause* of this error: the `escapeRegExp` function in `blacklist.js` tries to convert regular expressions to be agnostic to the path separator ("/" or "\\"), but turns some valid regular expressions to invalid syntax.

The error was is this line:
https://github.com/facebook/metro/blob/142348f5345e40ce2075fc7f9dfa30c5d31fee2a/packages/metro-config/src/defaults/blacklist.js#L28
When given a regular expression, such as `/node_modules[/\\]react[/\\]dist[/\\].*/`, on Windows where `path.sep` is `\` (which is also an escape character in regular expressions), this gets turned into `/node_modules[\\\]react[\\\]dist[\\\].*/`, resulting in the `Unterminated character class` error.

Automatically replacing `[/]` with `[\]` is an error, as is replacing `[\/]` with `[\\]`, because in both of these cases the backslash before the end of character class "]" escapes it, and the character class becomes unterminated. Therefore, this PR changes the code to look for both escaped forward slash `\/` and forward slash `/`, and always replace them with the escaped version (`\/` or `\\`, depending on the platform).

This fixes #453.

**Test plan**

Added a test case that exercises the code with both `\` and `/` as path separators.
