// MAIN //

/**
* Restores the (non-standard) properties on the `RegExp` expression object to cached matches.
*
* ## Notes
*
* -   In certain JavaScript engines (e.g., V8, SpiderMonkey), the global `RegExp` object has ([non-standard][1]) static, read-only properties (`$1`, `$2`, ..., `$9`) with cached substring matches. This function restores matches to a prior state based on a provided list of cached matches.

*
* @private
* @param {StringArray} cache - list of previously saved substring matches
