matcher: use re2 bindings if available

There are two sets of Python re2 bindings available on the internet;
this code works with both.

Using re2 can greatly improve "hg status" performance when a .hgignore
file becomes even modestly complex.

Example: "hg status" on a clean tree with 134K files, where "hg
debugignore" reports a regexp 4256 bytes in size.

  no .hgignore: 1.76 sec
  Python re:    2.79
  re2:          1.82

The overhead of regexp matching drops from 1.03 seconds with stock
re to 0.06 with re2.

(For comparison, a git repo with the same contents and .gitignore
file runs "git status -s" in 1.71 seconds, i.e. only slightly faster
than hg with re2.)

  $ "$TESTDIR/hghave" inotify || exit 80
  $ hg init
  $ echo "[extensions]" >> $HGRCPATH
  $ echo "inotify=" >> $HGRCPATH

inserve

  $ hg inserve -d --pid-file=hg.pid
  $ cat hg.pid >> "$DAEMON_PIDS"

let the daemon finish its stuff

  $ sleep 1

empty

  $ hg debuginotify
  directories being watched:
    /
    .hg/
  $ mkdir a
  $ sleep 1

only 'a

  $ hg debuginotify
  directories being watched:
    /
    .hg/
    a/
  $ rmdir a
  $ sleep 1

empty again

  $ hg debuginotify
  directories being watched:
    /
    .hg/
  $ kill `cat hg.pid`
