[issue45462] Speed up re.match with pre-compiled patterns

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpython at gmail.com> added the comment:

Calling re.math() with a pre-compiled pattern is an uncommon case. Common cases are calling re.math() with a string pattern and calling the math() method of a pre-compiled pattern.

Your change speeds up an uncommon case but slows down a common case.
