This patch adds the generator script for making regcharclass.h to
Porting/ as discussed in #p5p. I've called the generator script
regcharclass.pl and documented what it does a bit, and made
configuration __DATA__ driven, and added boilerplate etc.

If executed with no args it trys to find regcharclass in the current
and parent directory. If it finds it then it updates it, otherwise it
dies. If executed with args then writes the generated code to a file
of that name.

Option handling and inline documentation is currently lacking. Ill try
to enhance it later on.

Also updates MANIFEST to show that regcharclass.h is generated by
regcharclass.pl

Cheers,
Yves
