(Regexps): Clarify that C-j should be preceded by a C-q in interactive use.

end-of-line, a space at the end of a line, a tab, or two spaces; and a
character set matching whitespace characters, repeated any number of
times.

  To enter the same regexp interactively, you would type @key{TAB} to
enter a tab, and @kbd{C-j} to enter a newline.  You would also type
single backslashes as themselves, instead of doubling them for Lisp syntax.

@ignore
@c I commented this out because it is missing vital information
@c and therefore useless.  For instance, what do you do to *use* the
@c regular expression when it is finished?  What jobs is this good for?

interactively, @kbd{C-j} should be preceded by a @kbd{C-q}, to prevent
Emacs from running the command bound to a newline.)  You would also type
