[PATCH 7/9] dfa: run simple UTF-8 regexps as a single-byte character set

[Paolo Bonzini]

This partially works around https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?29117,
but in general provides a speedup whenever fgrep is "almost" sufficient
but not quite (e.g. grep ^abc).  Speedup is too good to be true :-)
(can get to 1000x on some not-too-contrived testcases).

* src/dfa.c (dfaoptimize): New.
(dfacomp): Call it.
