Subject: docs: auto-generate docs for `vim.lpeg` and `vim.re`

- Add section `VIM.LPEG` and `VIM.RE` to docs/lua.txt.

- Add `_meta/re.lua` which adds luadoc and type annotations, for the
  vendored `vim.re` package.

- Fix minor style issues on `_meta/lpeg.lua` luadoc for better vimdocs
  generation.

- Fix a bug on `gen_vimdoc` where non-helptags in verbatim code blocks
  were parsed as helptags, affecting code examples on `vim.lpeg.Cf`,
  etc.

- Also move the `vim.regex` section below so that it can be located
  closer to `vim.lpeg` and `vim.re`.

+---The `vim.re` module provides a conventional regex-like syntax for pattern usage
+---within LPeg |vim.lpeg|.

+--- Compiles the given {string} and returns an equivalent LPeg pattern. The given string may define
+--- either an expression or a grammar. The optional {defs} table provides extra Lua values to be used

+--- Searches the given {pattern} in the given {subject}. If it finds a match, returns the index
+--- where this occurrence starts and the index where it ends. Otherwise, returns nil.

+--- An optional numeric argument {init} makes the search starts at that position in the subject
+--- string. As usual in Lua libraries, a negative value counts from the end.
