Lua functions to find and replace macros in LaTeX strings. Good for [`pandoc` Lua filters](https://pandoc.org/lua-filters.html). For a complete example, see [this lua filter](https://github.com/yuxiliu-arm/herdtools7/blob/0f40e05ff1afe08b1aea8c9be951ef5a8b9b3a38/asllib/doc/filters/aslref.lua).

	local M = {}

	--- Find pattern in `s` and capture arguments into an array.
	--- @param s string
	--- @param pattern string
	--- @param arity integer
	--- @return integer\|nil, integer\|nil, string[]
	local function matchMacroHelper(s, pattern, arity)
	local i, j = s:find(pattern)
	local args = {}
