Move all the logic from prism.c into regexp.c. Now regexp.c does two passes. The first pass scans the raw source to track escape types, non-ASCII literals, and multibyte validity for encoding validation. The second pass scans the unescaped content for named capture extraction (needed because escape sequences like line continuations alter group names).

Fixed a couple of things along the way. ascii_only was previously computed from unescaped content, but we can do that as we go to avoid scanning again. Unicode properties also now properly error for regexp with modifiers.

Fixes #2104
Fixes #2620
Fixes #3734
