match: remove unnecessary '^' from regexes
The regexes are passed to re.match(), which matches against the
beginning of the input, so the '^' doesn't do anything.
Note that unrooted patterns, such as globs and regexes from .hgignore
are instead achieved by adding '.*' to the expression given by the
user. (That's unless the user's expression started with '^', in which
case the '.*' is not added, perhaps to keep the regex cleaner?)

Our full contribution guidelines are in our wiki, please see: https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit 273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
