Description

### Describe your issue

Since evil-collection commit 8db8a959, [[ and ]] are no longer bound to comint-previous-prompt and comint-next-prompt in normal state.

Here is a hypothesis from Claude Code:

Doom adds "[" and "]" to evil-collection-key-blacklist in modules/editor/evil/config.el. That commit extended the blacklist check from exact match to prefix match, so [[ and ]] are now blocked because they start with the blacklisted [ and ].

I used claude for spell correction and to generate an hypothesis on what is hapening

### Steps to reproduce

0. doomemacss with module evil enabled
1. 1. M-x shell
2. in normal state, C-h c [[ you get evil-backward-section-begin

Research direction

Start by reading modules/editor/evil/config.el and evil-collection commit 8db8a959, then reproduce the issue with M-x shell in normal state and C-h c [[ or ]]. Trace how evil-collection-key-blacklist is checked against these keys. Done means [[ and ]] again invoke comint-previous-prompt and comint-next-prompt in the reported setup.
