Benjamin Mako Hill 8056c91ac8 add regex match counting (-RPc / -CPc) ...

Port the regex counting feature from the mako_changes-20230429 branch
(2ff4d60): the -RPc/--revision-pattern-count and
-CPc/--comment-pattern-count flags cause revision and comment patterns
to output the number of matches instead of the matched text, with 0
(never null) for revisions with no matches or deleted content. The
flags apply to all revision or comment patterns respectively, and count
columns are typed int64 in the output schema.

Counting the matches of common or large patterns previously required
returning the full matched text, which made for very large outputs.

Also take the code review suggestion from that branch (933ca75): use
assignment expressions so matching no longer makes redundant calls to
search() before finditer()/findall() or calls match.group() twice.

Includes unit tests for the count semantics and schema types, and an
end-to-end test that verifies counts against the number of matches
recomputed from each revision's text and comment.
