Subject: [PATCH] 	Optimization to regexp _CharClass: keep track of
 overall range of     charclass to avoid unnecessarily iterating over ranges. 
    Also, use the fact that IntVector is an []int to avoid method calls.    
 On my machine, this brings us from ~27500 ns/op to ~17500 ns/op in the
 benchmark I've added (it is also faster in the case where a range check    
 doesn't help, added a benchmark for this too.)

    I'd also like to propose that "[]", and "[^]" be disallowed. They aren't useful as far as I can tell, they aren't widely supported, and they make reasoning about character classes a bit more complicated.
