userdiff: extend Bash pattern to cover more shell function forms
The previous function regex required explicit matching of function bodies using `{`, `(`, `((`, or `[[`, which caused several issues: - It failed to capture valid functions where `{` was on the next line due to line continuation (`\`). - It did not recognize functions with single command body, such as `x () echo hello`. Replacing the function body matching logic with `.*$`, ensures that everything on the function definition line is captured. Additionally, the word regex is refined to better recognize shell syntax, including additional parameter expansion operators and command-line options.
