Style: Misc docs and comment style and language fixes
- Removed empty paragraphs in XML. - Consistently use bold style for "Example:", on a new line. - Fix usage of `[code]` when hyperlinks could be used (`[member]`, `[constant]`). - Fix invalid usage of backticks for inline code in BBCode. - Fix some American/British English spelling inconsistencies. - Other minor fixes spotted along the way, including typo fixes with codespell. - Don't specify `@GlobalScope` for `enum` and `constant`.

Class for searching text for patterns using regular expressions.
</brief_description>
<description>
- A regular expression (or regex) is a compact language that can be used to recognise strings that follow a specific pattern, such as URLs, email addresses, complete sentences, etc. For example, a regex of [code]ab[0-9][/code] would find any string that is [code]ab[/code] followed by any number from [code]0[/code] to [code]9[/code]. For a more in-depth look, you can easily find various tutorials and detailed explanations on the Internet.

To begin, the RegEx object needs to be compiled with the search pattern using [method compile] before it can be used.
