Comunica Term Function Regex Function Factory Actor

A function factory actor that constructs a term function capable of evaluating the Regex function. The regex evaluation uses the JavaScript regex engine in 'unicode-mode' thereby eliminating Annex B behavior. The x and q flag not present in the JS engine are implemented by preprocessing of the pattern. As a result of using the JS regex engine, the bundle size of this package is small, but some non-spec compliant edge cases are present. Examples are the skipped tests in op.regex-test.ts.

This module is part of the Comunica framework, and should only be used by developers that want to build their own query engine.
