Make regex "max_chr" depend on encoding, not provider.

The regex mechanism scans through the first "max_chr" character values
to cache character property ranges (isalpha, etc.). For single-byte
encodings, there's no sense in scanning beyond UCHAR_MAX; but for
UTF-8 it makes sense to cache higher code point values (though not all
of them; only up to MAX_SIMPLE_CHR).

Prior to 5a38104b36, the logic about how many character values to scan
was based on the pg_regex_strategy, which was dependent on the
provider. Commit 5a38104b36 preserved that logic exactly, allowing
different providers to define the "max_chr".

Now, change it to depend only on the encoding and whether
ctype_is_c. For this specific calculation, distinguishing between
providers creates more complexity than it's worth.
