Question: will regexp routes be considered?

[jxskiss]

Just a question, does regexp routes will be supported? Or if it's welcomed to accept PR to support regexp?
Sometimes it's quite useful doing some migration work.

Yeah, I can accept a PR for it if it can be done without disrupting the rest of the code too much.

Something interacting with wildcardChild, or maybe a new similar field for regexes, and doing a check around

httptreemux/tree.go

Line 267 in ce8677c

if n.wildcardChild != nil {

should work I think.

Also I believe the Chi router (https://github.com/go-chi/chi) already accepts regexp routes so that might be a better choice than this one.

I will take a try to do some experimental work, if it looks not bad, I will send it for review and further discussing.
Yes, I guess a new similar field like wildcardChild is a good start.

I'm not familiar with it, I use Gin a lot and like the router, but miss regex route ability sometimes, but Gin and httprouter seems won't accept regex.
