This function is equivalent to g_regex_match() but it does not
require to compile the pattern with g_regex_new(), avoiding some
lines of code when you need just to do a match without extracting
substrings, capture counts, and so on.
If this function is to be called on the same @pattern more than
once, it's more efficient to compile the pattern once with
g_regex_new() and then use g_regex_match().
Scans for a match in @string for @pattern.
