Andrew Gallant 1035f6b1ff deps: initial migration steps to regex 1.9
This leaves the grep-regex crate in tatters. Pretty much the entire
thing needs to be re-worked. The upshot is that it should result in some
big simplifications. I hope.

The idea here is to drop down and actually use regex-automata 0.3
instead of the regex crate itself.
