docs: Add patterns to the entitiy ruler. A pattern can either be a token
          pattern (list of dicts) or a phrase pattern (string). For example:
          {'label': 'ORG', 'pattern': 'Apple'}
          {'label': 'GPE', 'pattern': [{'lower': 'san'}, {'lower': 'francisco'}]}
  
          patterns (list): The patterns to add.
