revset: stop lowercasing the regex pattern for 'author'

It was probably unintentional for regex, as the meaning of some sequences like
\S and \s is actually inverted by changing the case.  For backward compatibility
however, the matching is forced to case insensitive.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
