In 15.10.2.1 "Notation",
the first 2 bullets say:
* Input is the String being matched by the regular expression pattern.
The notation input[n] means the nth character of input, where n can
range between 0 (inclusive) and InputLength (exclusive).
* InputLength is the number of characters in the Input String.
Do these 2 occurrences of "character" mean "code unit" or "code point"?
Similarly with other uses of "character" in 15.10, it's just that these two are fairly fundamental.
