Review comment:
       imo achieving full compatibility with postgres is beyond the scope of 
the `arrow-rs` crate. IMO the least surprising option here is an implementation 
of the regex semantics declared in the `regex` crate. Users interested in the 
postgres semantics are a subset of all users - postgres semantics is something 
relatively specific to databases.
   
   Also, afaik achieving postgres semantics is relatively difficult as it 
requires a regex parser to act as the postgres one (but I may be mistaken here).
   
   A possible approach is to move both of these kernels to datafusion and keep 
a non-postgres, `regex`-crate specific one here.
