Indeed, the 'for_statement' is a hard problem, and I see
no good solution.  I already encountered in different languages
the same problem that you described:

Maybe indeed worth to try defining pair-open and pair-end as
some children nodes of the 'for_statement', i.e. only the opening paren
and the closing paren.  Something like (completely untested):

(and (member (treesit-node-text node) '("(" ")"))
     (equal (treesit-node-type (treesit-node-parent node)) "for_statement"))
