Error in RegExp

[elasmojs]

Hi,

The following code snippet works incorrectly for RegExp

let re = /(\w+)\s(\w+)/
let str = 'John Smith'
let newstr = str.replace(re, '$2, $1')
console.log(newstr)

Expected: Smith, John
Got: Smith, $1

thanks

Hmmm. This this is probably a bug in String.prototype.replace.

I think I've found the mistake and the fix, I'll open a PR soon.
