In other words maintain the order of capture groups. With the MaintainCaptureOrder regexp option.

I also added inline option o. It's useful if you only have access to the pattern, but not the regex. But it only is useful if used at the start of the pattern, I couldn't find a way to prevent it from being used elsewhere.

I've never liked nor have been good with bitwise operations. So I don't know if I should've picked another number.

In other words maintain the order of capture groups.

Because consumeAutocap is called inside noteCaptureName when MaintainCaptureOrder is enabled.

Does this need a comment somewhere?

@yywing Don't know why you asked that question here, as it's not relevant to the pull request. But you can do match.GroupByName(`aa`).
