The old AddFixedStringToRegEx() it was based on got away with this for the
longest time, but the problem became easy to spot after the cleanup in r197096.
Also add a quick unit test to cover regex escaping.

Both FileCheck and clang's -verify need to escape strings for regexes,
so let's expose this as a utility in the Regex class.

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

appropriate unit tests. This change in itself is not expected to
affect any functionality at this point, but it will serve as a
stepping stone to improve FileCheck's variable matching capabilities.
Luckily, our regex implementation already supports backreferences,
although a bit of hacking is required to enable it. It supports both
Basic Regular Expressions (BREs) and Extended Regular Expressions
(EREs), without supporting backrefs for EREs, following POSIX strictly
in this respect. And EREs is what we actually use (rightly). This is
contrary to many implementations (including the default on Linux) of
POSIX regexes, that do allow backrefs in EREs.
Adding backref support to our EREs is a very simple change in the
regcomp parsing code. I fail to think of significant cases where it
would clash with existing things, and can bring more versatility to
the regexes we write. There's always the danger of a backref in a
specially crafted regex causing exponential matching times, but since
we mainly use them for testing purposes I don't think it's a big
problem. [it can also be placed behind a flag specific to FileCheck,
if needed].
