clean_text

Cleans a character vector by converting text to lowercase,
removing selected punctuation (plus signs, em dashes, exclamation
points), normalizing commas, and removing whitespace.

Extracts information from text using lookup tables of regular
expressions. Each text entry is compared against all patterns, and all
matching patterns and their corresponding substrings are returned. If a
text entry matches multiple patterns, multiple rows are generated to
capture each match. This approach enables comprehensive pattern coverage
when processing large or complex text datasets.
