Clojure LSP incorrectly marks `[\!\@]` as an error `<form> expected, got '\!\@'`

Describe the bug

When I write in a *.clj file:

 [\!\@]

Clojure LSP IntelliJ marks \!\@ as an error: <form> expected, got '\!\@'

This appears to be independent of the actual values (\! and \@ in this case; e.g. \a\b or \.\: behaves the same way).

The vector [] is not necessary either. Given a file containing:

\a\b

Clojure LSP IntellJ will mark \a\b as an error: '\a\b' unexpected

Expected behavior

\a\b is valid syntax. [\a\b] is a vector containing char values \a and \b.
