[TRAFODION-2353] support of the regexp operator
This is a required feature to support basic Regular Expression in Trafodion.
This work is following the design at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TRAFODION/Example+Enhancement%3A+Add+a+New+Built-in+Function
The difference is in this version, I didn't use Google's RE2, but use GNU
LibC's POSIX Regexp modules. The benefit is GUN libc is already installed and
it is very common, so no need to introduce a new dependency. GNU regexp follows
the POSIX regular expression, although others add more features on POSIX, but
this already support all basic regular expression syntax. If there are strong
requirement to support more Regular Expression syntax that GNU cannot support,
we can enhance it later.
