Add RegExp recursion depth limit (#2543)

The regexp engine does not have any recursion depth check, thus it can cause problems with various regexps. Added a new build option `--regexp-recursion-limit N` whose
default value is 0, which is for unlimited recursion depth. Also added a build-option-test.

Fixes #2448
Fixes #2190
