[issue6561] Regex '\d' should not match unicode category 'No'.

[Ezio Melotti]

Ezio Melotti <ezio.melotti at gmail.com> added the comment:

This seems to me quite redundant:
+      Matches any Unicode decimal digit; more specifically, matches
+      any character in Unicode category [Nd] (Number, Decimal Digit).
+      This includes ``[0-9]``, and also many other digit characters.
I suggest something like:
Matches the decimal digits ``[0-9]`` and all the characters that belong
to the Unicode category Nd (Number, Decimal Digit).

Two more minor details: instead of '\d', I'd use '^\d$' and instead of
self.assertEqual(re.match('\d', x), None)
self.assertIsNone(re.match('\d', x)).
