Fix up runtime regex codeblocks.

The previous commits in this branch have brought literal code blocks
into the New World Order; now do the same for runtime blocks, i.e. those
needing "use re 'eval'".

The main user-visible changes from this commit are that:

* the code is now fully parsed, rather than needing balanced {}'s; i.e.
  this now works:
      my $code = q[  (?{ $a = '{' })  ];
      use re 'eval';
      /$code/

* warnings and errors are now reported as coming from "(eval NNN)" rather
 than "(re_eval NNN)" (although see the next commit for some fixups to
 that). Indeed, the string "re_eval" has been expunged from the source
 and documentation.

The big internal difference is that the sv_compile_2op() and
sv_compile_2op_is_broken() functions are no longer used, and will be
removed shorty.

It works by the regex compiler detecting the presence of run-time code
blocks, and feeding the whole pattern string back into the parser (where
the run-time blocks are now seen as compile-time), then extracting out
any compiled code blocks and adding them to the mix.

For example, in the following:

    $c = '(?{"runtime"})d';
    use re 'eval';
    /a(?{"literal"})\b'$c/

At the point the regex compiler is called, the perl parser will already
have compiled the literal code block and presented it to the regex engine.
The engine examines the pattern string, sees two '(?{', but only one
accounted for by the parser, and so constructs a short string to be
evalled: based on the pattern, but with literal code-blocks blanked out,
and \ and ' escaped. In the above example, the pattern string is

       a(?{"literal"})\b'(?{"runtime"})d

and we call eval_sv() with an SV containing the text

    qr'a              \\b\'(?{"runtime"})d'

The returned qr will contain the new code-block (and associated CV and
pad) which can be extracted and added to the list of compiled code blocks
of the original pattern.

Note that with this scheme, the requirement for "use re 'eval'" is easily
determined, and no longer requires all the pp_regcreset / PL_reginterp_cnt
machinery, which will be removed shortly.

Two subtleties of this scheme are that normally, \\ isn't collapsed into \
for literal regexes (unlike literal strings), and hints aren't inherited
when using eval_sv(). We get round both of these by adding and setting a
new flag, PL_reg_state.re_reparsing, which indicates that we are refeeding
a pattern into the perl parser.
