Detailed Description

Regular expression execution context.

When a regular expression "matches" to a string, it generates capture groups etc. This struct holds that info. Visible from Ruby as an instance of MatchData.

Note: There is no way for extension libraries to manually generate this struct except by actually exercising the match operation of a regular expression.
