Description

### I confirm that...

- [x] I have searched the [issue tracker](https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs/issues), [documentation](https://docs.doomemacs.org), [FAQ](https://docs.doomemacs.org/-/faq), [Discourse](https://discourse.doomemacs.org), and [Google](https://google.com), in case this issue has already been reported/resolved.

- [x] I have read "[How to Debug Issues](https://doomemacs.org/d/how2debug)", and will use it to provide as much information about this issue as possible.

- [x] The issue can be reproduced on the **latest** available commit of Doom.

- [x] The issue can be reproduced on a stable release of Emacs, such as 27, 28, or 29. *(Unstable versions end in .50, .60, or .9x)*

### Expected behavior

Given the following sequence:
qqiloremipsumjkq
\@q
I expect the output to be
loremipsum

explained as the following:
define macro (q) with key (q) insert mode (i) test text (loremipsum) evil-escape (jk) end define macro (q)
(\@q) play macro

### Current behavior

The actual output I get is:
loremipsumjk

It seems like the evil-escape-sequence keys are being included in the macro.

### Steps to reproduce

This is all from a brand new install of doom emacs:
1. Open emacs
2. Open any text file
3. Define the macro by typing the following: qqiloremipsumjkq
4. Play the macro by typing \@q
