regexp.h: Move bits around
make regen needed. This commit moves some bits in extflags around so that all the unallocated ones are at the boundary between the unshared portion and the portion shared with op.h. This allows them to be allocated in the future to go either way, without affecting binary compatibility at that time. The high-order bits are unaffected, but the low order ones move to fill the gap.
