This PR adds support for the Postgres "~" posix regex operator and the MySQL "RLIKE" operator as a filter operator for char fields ("__posix_regex").
Description
I needed support for filtering with the "~" operator offered by postgres (9.7.3. POSIX Regular Expressions)
Motivation and Context
The POSIX regex operator is more powerful than the LIKE statement.
How Has This Been Tested?
I added two tests for the postgres and mysql backends
