    regex: mixed sets are misidentified as singletons

    Fix "singleton" function used by regcomp() to turn character set matches
    into exact character matches if a character set has exactly one
    element.

    The underlying cset representation is complex; most critically it
    records"small" characters (codepoint less than either 128
    or 256 depending on locale) in a bit vector, and "wide" characters in
    a secondary array.

    Unfortunately the "singleton" function uses to identify singleton sets
    treated a cset as a singleton if either the "small" or the "wide" sets
    had exactly one element (it would then ignore the other set).

    The easiest way to demonstrate this bug:

            $ export LANG=C.UTF-8
            $ echo 'a' | grep '[abà]'

    It should match (and print "a") but instead it doesn't match because the
    single accented character in the set is misinterpreted as a singleton.
