Fix URI vault regex example (#393)

I find it important that examples actually follow best practices. The
current regex does not escaping dots in URIs when writing regex is a
mistake that is often made, even by advanced regex people. I think this
comes from the way we humans look at URIs. Dots are so common in there,
aren’t they?  Yes, but we write proper regular expressions here, not
something in between.
