Regular expressions involving a (x){0} term are
simplified by removing this term from the
expression, just before the expression is compiled.
The number of subexpressions is evaluated before
the simplification. The number of capture instructions
in the compiled expressions is not necessarily in line
with the number of subexpressions.
When the ReplaceAll(String) methods are used, a number
of capture slots (nmatch) is evaluated as 2*(s+1)
(s being the number of subexpressions).
In some case, it can be higher than the number of capture
instructions evaluated at compile time, resulting in a
panic when the internal slices of regexp.machine
are resized to this value.
Fixed by capping the number of capture slots to the number
of capture instructions.
I must say I do not really see the benefits of setting
nmatch lower than re.prog.NumCap using this 2*(s+1) formula,
so perhaps this can be further simplified.

The existing comment for regex.Split contains a plain text example,
while many of the other regex functions have runnable examples. This
change provides a runnable example for Split.

Replaced code.google.com/p/re2/ with github.com/google/re2/ and
updated the file names (re2-exhaustive.txt.bz2 not re2.txt.gz)
as well as the re2 make command (make log).

This update makes maxBacktrackLen return 0 if
len(prog.Inst) > maxBacktrackProg. This prevents an attempt to
backtrack against a nil bitstate.

The stack blowout can no longer happen,
but we can still test that too-complex regexps
are rejected.
