- adds case-insensitive matching in sed s/// epxressions
- consolodates common regcomp code in grep & sed into bb_regcomp and put in
utility.c
- cleans up a bunch of cruft
However, the case of
grep foo$ file
didn't work, due to a problem with the flags used in regular expression
compilation. The attached patch fixes this problem.

Thanks, Matt, it works great.
utility.c and replaced them with get_line_from_file() from the new grep.c.
Also changed declaration in internal.h and replaced instances of
cstring_lineFromFile() in dc.c and sort.c with get_line_from_file(). Tested
them and they worked fine.
