Update documentation for re library to explain that a backreference to group0 (\g<0>) is expanded to the entire string when using Match.expand(). Note that numeric backreferences to group 0 (\0) are not supported. (See https://stackoverflow.com/q/58134893/3357935)

Update documentation for `re` library to explain that a backreference to group0 (`\g<0>`) is expanded to the entire string when using `Match.expand()`. Note that numeric backreferences to group 0 (`\0`) are not supported. (See https://stackoverflow.com/q/58134893/3357935)
