Janis Danisevskis 50f0910cf0 libselinux: add support for pcre2
This patch moves all pcre1/2 dependencies into the new files regex.h
and regex.c implementing the common denominator of features needed
by libselinux. The compiler flag -DUSE_PCRE2 toggles between the
used implementations.

As of this patch libselinux supports either pcre or pcre2 but not
both at the same time. The persistently stored file contexts
information differs. This means libselinux can only load file
context files generated by sefcontext_compile build with the
same pcre variant.

Also, for pcre2 the persistent format is architecture dependent.
Stored precompiled regular expressions can only be used on the
same architecture they were generated on. If pcre2 is used,
sefcontext_compile now respects the "-r". This flag makes
sefcontext_compile include the precompiled regular expressions
in the output file. The default is to omit them, so that the
output remains portable at the cost of having to recompile
the regular expressions at load time, or rather on first use.

Build dependencies on Fedora:

To build and install everything under a private directory, run:
make DESTDIR=~/obj install install-pywrap

To install as the default system libraries and binaries
(overwriting any previously installed ones - dangerous!),
on x86_64, run:
make LIBDIR=/usr/lib64 SHLIBDIR=/lib64 install install-pywrap relabel
or on x86 (32-bit), run:
make install install-pywrap relabel

This may render your system unusable if the upstream SELinux userspace
lacks library functions or other dependencies relied upon by your
distribution.  If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.
