 The Ultimate C Preprocessor

+9 Lightweight regexes are added, almost 15 times as fast as C's built in regex. They are very simple, they only have bracket expressions, like [a-z].
 
 To use it, you need to pass a buffer of the size of the expansion of the regex. Foo[a-fA-F] would be Foo[abcdefABCDEF]. That would be stored in a buffer.
 
 From testing, 15x times faster than C's regex POST COMPILATION, if compilation keeps happening, it might be hundreds of times faster.
