This series of commits causes the regex engine to understand the /u 
modifier on literal strings when /i is used.  These generate EXACTish 
regnodes.

It does this by establishing a new node type, EXACTFU which implies 
using Unicode semantics.

Still remaining to be done in /iu are backreferences and tries.
