cmake: correctly detect if system provides `regcomp`

We assume that if we are on Win32, Amiga OS, Solaris or SunOS,
that the regcomp(3P) function cannot be provided by the system.
Thus we will in these cases always include our own, bundled regex
sources to make a regcomp implementation available. This test is
obviously very fragile, and we have seen it fail on MSYS2/MinGW
systems, which do in fact provide the regcomp symbol. The effect
is that during compilation, we will use the "regex.h" header
provided by MinGW, but use symbols provided by ourselves. This
in fact may cause subtle memory layout issues, as the structure
made available via MinGW doesn't match what our bundled code
expects.

There's one more problem with our regex detection: on the listed
platforms, we will incorrectly include the bundled regex code
even in case where the system provides regcomp_l(3), but it will
never be used for anything.

Fix the issue by improving our regcomp detection code. Instead of
relying on a fragile listing of platforms, we can just use
`CHECK_FUNCTION_EXISTS` instead. This will not in fact avoid the
header-ordering problem. But we can assume that as soon as a
system-provided "regex.h" header is provided, that
`CHECK_FUNCTION_EXISTS` will now correctly find the desired
symbol and thus not include our bundled regex code.
