Description
There are three path types in gateway-api spec: Exact/PathPrefix/RegularExpression(https://gateway-api.sigs.k8s.io/reference/api-spec/main/spec/#pathmatchtype)
In https://docs.nginx.com/nginx-gateway-fabric/overview/gateway-api-compatibility/#httproute, it only supports two of them.
path: Partially supported. Only PathPrefix and Exact types.
But from ngf release note seems RegularExpression is supported also, is it a document issue?
https://github.com/nginx/nginx-gateway-fabric/releases?page=2#release-v2.2.0
Add regex for path matching by @fabian4 in https://github.com/nginx/nginx-gateway-fabric/pull/3874

Research direction

Done means the documentation accurately describes whether RegularExpression, alongside Exact and PathPrefix, is supported.
