git-rev-list: Add regexp tuning options
PATCH 1/3 git-rev-list: Add regexp tuning options
This patch introduces --extended-regexp and --regexp-ignore-case options to tune what kind of patterns the pattern-limiting options (--grep, --author, ...) accept.

PATCH 2/3 gitweb: Lift any characters restriction on searched strings
Everything is already fully quoted along the way so I believe this to be unnecessary at this point. It would pose trouble for regexp searches.

PATCH 3/3 gitweb: Clearly distinguish regexp / exact match searches
In reply to Petr BaudisThis patch does a couple of things:
* Makes commit/author/committer search case insensitive
To be consistent with the grep search; I see no convincing reason for the search to be case sensitive, and you might get in trouble especially with contributors e.g. from Japan or France where they sometimes like to uppercase their last name.
* Makes grep search by default grep for fixed strings
Since we will have a checkbox.
* Introduces 're' checkbox that enables POSIX extended regexp searches
This works for all the search types. The idea comes from Jakub.
It does not make much sense (and is not easy at all) to untangle most of these changes from each other, thus they all go in a single patch.
