Error when using angle pic in another pic

[knuesel]

Brief outline of the bug

Using the angle pic in the definition of a new pic triggers an error.

Minimal working example (MWE)

\documentclass[crop,tikz]{standalone}
\usetikzlibrary{angles}
\usetikzlibrary{quotes}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
    \tikzset{
        myangle/.pic={
            \draw (3,0) coordinate (A)
               -- (0,1) coordinate (B)
               -- (1,2) coordinate (C)
               pic [draw, "$\alpha$"] {angle};
        },
    }
    \pic { myangle };
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

This produces the following error message:

! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [grouping levels=255].
\XC@edef #1#2->\begingroup 
                           \ifnum \catcode `\!=13 \edef !{\string !}\fi \ifn...
l.14     \pic { myangle }
                         ;
!  ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

Other people hit by this: see here (which suggests the workaround of using the angle pic in foreground code, but that doesn't seem to work in the case of this MWE) and here.

@knuesel Before next release, you can use ... pic [draw, "$\alpha$", pics/code=] {angle}; as a workaround.

Thanks for the fix and temporary workaround!
