Regex search

[dread]

Search of package name and title (and other fields) using regular expressions.

Current example use-case: Wanting to specify packages with title beginning with 'B'.

Issues:

• Syntax for specifying regex over natural language search - could it be contained in the q param so be available to users of the WUI, or do we simply make it alternative fields?

Implementation:

• Postgres reg ex searching detailed here:

This is over 6 months old so closing in line with our ticketing policy. Also, I shouldn't think we really want such a complicated search anyway.
