regexp: reword Match documentation to be more like Find

Before:

  // Find returns a slice holding the text of the leftmost match in b of the regular expression.

  // Match checks whether a textual regular expression matches a byte slice.

After:

  // Match reports whether the byte slice b contains any match of the regular expression re.

The use of different wording for Find and Match always makes me think
that Match required the entire string to match while Find clearly allows
a substring to match.

This CL makes the Match wording correspond more closely to Find,
to try to avoid that confusion.
