Log Message:
-----------
perlre.pod - rework documentation of capture groups and backreferences
The documentation for capture groups and backreferences was getting
somewhat awkward in terms of wording and structure and was inconsistent
in terminology, difficult to read in raw form, and had omissions and
mistakes in various places.
This is an attempt to clean it up, make it more readable, comprehensive,
correct the mistakes, enhance what was there, and provide more links
from it to perlvar.
