    From http://docs.jsonata.org/string-functions.html: $match(str, pattern [, limit]) Finds occurrences of pattern within str and reports them with their index and group. If str is not specified, then the context value is used as the value of str. It is an error if str is not a string. The pattern parameter must be a regular expression (regex) String used for searching the string. The optional limit parameter, is a number that specifies the maximum number of results to be found before stopping. Examples $match("John Smith and John Jones", "John") == "[{"match":"John","index":0,"groups":["John"]},{"match":"John","index":15,"groups":["John"]}]
