gitweb: Clearly distinguish regexp / exact match searches
This patch does a couple of things: * Makes commit/author/committer search case insensitive To be consistent with the grep search; I see no convincing reason for the search to be case sensitive, and you might get in trouble especially with contributors e.g. from Japan or France where they sometimes like to uppercase their last name. * Makes grep search by default search for fixed strings. * Introduces 're' checkbox that enables POSIX extended regexp searches This works for all the search types. The idea comes from Jakub. It does not make much sense (and is not easy at all) to untangle most of these changes from each other, thus they all go in a single patch.
