* doc/regexp.rdoc: In regexp doc, two backslashes match one literally
In the "Metacharacters and Escapes" section of regexp.rdoc, it said that to match a backslash literally, it must be backslash-escaped, but the rendered HTML showed three backslashes (\\\). There should only be two backslashes (\\). patched by jlmuir (J. Lewis Muir) [fix GH-1677] git-svn-id: svn+ssh://ci.ruby-lang.org/ruby/trunk@60326 b2dd03c8-39d4-4d8f-98ff-823fe69b080e

Patterns behave like double-quoted strings so can contain the same

backslash escapes.
