Bytecodes used by the regular expression interpreter often occur in specific sequences. The number of dispatches in the interpreter can be reduced if those sequences are combined into a single bytecode. This CL adds a peephole optimization pass for regexp bytecodes. This pass checks the generated bytecode for pre-defined sequences that can be merged into a single bytecode. With the currently implemented bytecode sequences a speedup of 1.12x on regex-dna and octane-regexp is achieved.
