libstdc++: std::basic_regex should treat '\0' as an ordinary char [PR84110]
When the input sequence contains a _CharT(0) character, the strchr call
in _Scanner<_CharT>::_M_scan_normal() will search for '\0' and so return
a pointer to the terminating null at the end of the string. This makes
the scanner think it's found a special character. Because it doesn't
match any of the actual special characters, we fall off the end of the
function (or assert in debug mode).
We should check for a null character explicitly and either treat it as
an ordinary character (for the ECMAScript grammar) or an error (for all
others). I'm not 100% sure that's right, but it seems consistent with
the POSIX RE rules where a '\0' means the end of the regex pattern or
the end of the sequence being matched.
