Normally this means surrounded by forward slashes, but we also still
allow any regular expression in a netclass match to keep from breaking
existing documents.

Also simplifies the scoring algorithm so that it only
differentiates between exact-match, match-at-start and
any-match. The rest of the position-based matching
stuff is gone, as is the knowledge of the name vs the
keywords vs the description. All that is left to the
provider of the weighted search terms array.
Footprint filter provides two Regex filtering options. One for keywords
and one for footprint keywords. The footprint keywords (contained in
the symbol files) need explicit '*' at the beginning and end of the
filters to allow matching start/end. Type-in filters should search
implicitly matching any wildcard substring.

Footprint filters need to be able to match the start and end of strings.
The standard wildcard filter implictly adds "*" to the start and end of
match strings, so we create a derived class that requires an explicit
"*" or "?" to match wildcards.
