The current re.VERBOSE documentation example leaves space for ambiguous interpretation. One may read that spaces within the `(?:` token are spaces inside the non-capturing group (such as `(?: )`). This patch removes the ambiguity by including examples after the statement. (cherry picked from commit 0ceafa7) Co-authored-by: Athos Ribeiro <athoscribeiro@gmail.com>
