A1 contains "TC_1 and TC_2 are really cool TC_5 and TC_6, but TC_7 is better"

B1 should use a formula to generate "TC_1, TC_2, TC_5, TC_6, TC_7"

There are 550 rows, so the formula should be flexible enough to apply to "N"
number of matches, and insert the matches into column B corresponding to the
entry in column A of the same row.

A2 contains "TC_1 and TC_22 are really cool TC_5"
B2 should use a formula to generate "TC_1, TC_22, TC_5"
