Add section on getting help & genAI

[tobyhodges]

This adds a new section about how to get help with writing & debugging regular expressions, including a discussion of generative AI in this context. It is based on the changes made and discussed in swcarpentry/python-novice-gapminder#697 (and in various other communication channels -- please see the linked PR thread for more details)

As LLMs are still evolving e.g., chain-of-thought reasoning and there is a lot of debate, May I recommend changes as follows:
proposed: the limits of what LLMs can do (e.g., their "reasoning" abilities are unreliable).
current: the limits of what LLMs can do (e.g., they can't "reason").
