Pablo Neira Ayuso 8082e4ed0a [LIB]: Boyer-Moore extension for textsearch infrastructure strike #2
Attached the implementation of the Boyer-Moore string search
algorithm for the new textsearch infrastructure.

I've added as well a note about the limitations that this approach
presents, as Thomas has remarked.

* Implements Boyer-Moore string matching algorithm:

* 20(10), 1977, pp. 762-772.

*
* Note: Since Boyer-Moore (BM) performs searches for matchings from right
* to left, it's still possible that a matching could be spread over
* multiple blocks, in that case this algorithm won't find any coincidence.
*
* If you're willing to ensure that such thing won't ever happen, use the
* Knuth-Pratt-Morris (KMP) implementation instead. In conclusion, choose
* the proper string search algorithm depending on your setting.
*
* Say you're using the textsearch infrastructure for filtering, NIDS or
* any similar security focused purpose, then go KMP. Otherwise, if you
* really care about performance, say you're classifying packets to apply
* Quality of Service (QoS) policies, and you don't mind about possible
* matchings spread over multiple fragments, then go BM.
