regex 1.3.6

An implementation of regular expressions for Rust. This implementation uses finite automata and guarantees linear time matching on all inputs.

/// A few elementary UTF-8 encoding and decoding functions used by the matching
/// engines.
///
/// In an ideal world, the matching engines operate on `&str` and we can just
/// lean on the standard library for all our UTF-8 needs. However, to support
/// byte based regexes (that can match on arbitrary bytes which may contain
/// UTF-8), we need to be capable of searching and decoding UTF-8 on a `&[u8]`.
/// The standard library doesn't really recognize this use case, so we have
/// to build it out ourselves.
///
/// Should this be factored out into a separate crate? It seems independently
/// useful. There are other crates that already exist (e.g., `utf-8`) that have
/// overlapping use cases. Not sure what to do.
