This commit makes it possible to build ModSecurity on systems where
/bin/sh is a POSIX-compliant shell that is not Bash. Debian, Alpine
Linux, and Gentoo Linux with the system shell set to not Bash, are
examples of such systems.
Previously, the helper macros contained two types of Bashisms:
* The '==' comparison operator. Very easy to change, as the proper
POSIX-compliant form is '='. For example:
if test "${var}" == "myvalue" -> if test "${var}" = "myvalue"
* The '-a' (and) operator in the 'test' builtin. The '-a' and '-o'
operators were removed in POSIX 2024 (Issue 8). The correct form
is to use the '&&' and '||' operators respectively. For instance:
if test -d "${var}" -a -r "${var}/file" ->
if test -d "${var}" && test -r "${var}/file"

Updated the build system and related source files to use libpcre2 as the
default regex library instead of the deprecated libpcre. This change
ensures future compatibility and aligns with the library's maintenance status.
To build with the old libpcre, the `--with-pcre` configuration parameter
can be specified.
