If the first value is only used obtained with String#scan,
it will increase the performance if replace with `String#=~` and `Regexp.last_match`.
### Environment
- MacBook Air (M1, 2020)
- macOS 12.0 beta 7
- Apple M1
- Ruby 3.0.2
### Test code
```ruby
require 'benchmark/ips'
WhitespaceControl = '-'
VariableStart = /\{\{/
VariableEnd = /\}\}/
ContentOfVariable = /\A#{VariableStart}#{WhitespaceControl}?(.*?)#{WhitespaceControl}?#{VariableEnd}\z/om
token = "{{item.product.featured_image | product_img_url: 'thumb' }}"
Benchmark.ips do |x|
x.report("String#scan") { token.scan(ContentOfVariable) {|content| break } }
x.report("String#match") { m = token.match(ContentOfVariable); m[1] }
x.report("String#=~") { token =~ ContentOfVariable; Regexp.last_match(1) }
x.compare!
end
```
### Result
```
Warming up --------------------------------------
String#scan 135.724k i/100ms
String#match 117.397k i/100ms
String#=~ 151.637k i/100ms
Calculating -------------------------------------
String#scan 1.351M (± 0.8%) i/s - 6.786M in 5.021955s
String#match 1.169M (± 1.3%) i/s - 5.870M in 5.020429s
String#=~ 1.520M (± 0.9%) i/s - 7.733M in 5.087427s
Comparison:
