QRegularExpression: mention raw string literal in the docs
Raw string literals (since C++11 according to [1]), make writing/reading
regex patterns easier, since one can just use e.g. "\w\d" without having
to escape those backslashes e.g. "\\w\\d"; this is especially useful with
longer/more complex regex patterns.

Pick-to: 5.15 6.0
