https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50292

           Summary: Port PCRE regex tests to JSC harness / ECMA syntax
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: barraclough at apple.com


LayoutTests/fast/regex currently contains a number of test cases ported from PCRE's test suites.
There are two key problems with these tests:
  * They use their own harness, and cannot be run from jsc without building all of WebKit.
  * They expect PCRE expression syntax, including extended syntax, backwards assertions, etc.

Rewrite all tests to comply to ECMA compatible syntax (ish - we support octal escapes), and use the normal 'shouldBe' test style.
