Review Comment:
IIC `position` is just `i-1` and that is just the position the user asks the
regex replace to start from
no?https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/08c07a17717691f931d4d3206dd0385073f5bd08/sql/catalyst/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/catalyst/expressions/regexpExpressions.scala#L598
And `i` would be 1 by default if users don't specify a position
(https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/08c07a17717691f931d4d3206dd0385073f5bd08/sql/catalyst/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/catalyst/expressions/regexpExpressions.scala#L601-L602).
So if user doesn't specify `pos`, then it would always be 1 and therefore
`position` will always be 0.
So ultimately the check `position==0` is not addressing the empty string case
