Add support for look-behinds (?<=ABC)

This is a super cool library and I'm shocked it's not more popular. I can't count the number of times I've had to relearn regex and something like this would help loads in learning and maintaining regex expressions.

I did notice that there isn't any support for look-behinds (?<=ABC) / (?<!ABC). Not sure if there's any motivation to support this library due to the lack of usage but thought I'd reach out and see.

Thank you for your remarks! The main reason this library isn't popular at all it's because I don't give it enough time :) There are quite some thing I'd like to do with it, starting with a complete rewrite (because, as it is, the code's pretty much unreadable), probably in TypeScript. And, of course, adding support to all the new features of JavaScript's regular expressions.
