(title) class Cursor
class Cursor { }
A Cursor object is used interally by the regex engine in regex matches
to keep track of the current position, backtracking waypoints and information
about capturing groups.
A user-space program usually doesn't need to deal with Cursor objects,
just with their relatives, L<Match> objects.
