regex: Remove FOLDCHAR regnode type
This node type hasn't been used since 5.14.0. Instead an ANYOFV node was generated where formerly a FOLDCHAR node would have been used. The ANYOFV was used because it already existed and was up-to-date, whereas FOLDCHAR would have needed some bug fixes to adapt it, even though it would be faster in execution than ANYOFV; so the code for it was retained in case it was needed. However, both these solutions were defective, and a previous commit has changed things to a different type of solution entirely. Thus FOLDCHAR is obsolescent and can be removed, though the code in it was used as a base for some of the new solutions.
