Prepend regerror() messages with "regexp error: "

The exact error messages returned by regerror() aren't standardized;
relying on them isn't portable. Thus, add a a prefix to make clear that
the subsequent message is a regexp parsing error, and only look for this
prefix in the test suite, ignoring the rest of the message.
