Internally regcomp needs to copy some iteration nodes before
translating the AST into TNFA representation.
Literal nodes were not copied correctly: the class type and list
of negated class types were not copied so classes were ignored
(in the non-negated case an ignored char class caused the literal
to match everything).
This affects iterations when the upper bound is finite, larger
than one or the lower bound is larger than one. So eg. the EREs
[[:digit:]]{2}
[^[:space:]ab]{1,4}
were treated as
.{2}
[^ab]{1,4}
The fix is done with minimal source modification to copy the
necessary fields, but the AST preparation and node handling
code of tre will need to be cleaned up for clarity.
