#12911: Allow u32regex_match to accept boost::string_view
--------------------------------+--------------------------
 Reporter:  dani.user@…         |      Owner:  johnmaddock
     Type:  Feature Requests    |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined    |  Component:  regex
  Version:  Boost 1.63.0        |   Severity:  Optimization
 Keywords:  regex, string_view  |
--------------------------------+--------------------------
 Boost provides a lot of boost::u32regex_match overloads for various string
 types in regex/icu.hpp.

 It would be nice to also be able to pass a boost::string_view. Passing a
 char pointer from the string_view incurs the overhead of calling strlen()
 which doesn't work on strings that are not null terminated.
