[libvirt] [PATCH 6/9] check-spacing: rewrite regex for checking the closing parenthesis

Instead of matching multiple characters before the parenthesis,
only check for a single whitespace, which is much less cpu-intensive.

This only matches a few dozen of places where they are on an separate
line, filter out those with a separate regex.
