Adding Regexp support for :only and :except options on filter_chains

#935

It would be nice to be able to pass in Regexp's to filter_chains. I attached the patch including units. First patch, so handle w/ care.

Example:

class MyController < ActionController::Base before_filter :auth, :only => Regexp.new(/.*_create/) end

Thanks

    Nice looking patch. However, you can already do this.

    
class MyController < ActionController::Base
  before_filter :auth, :if => Proc.new { |controller|
      controller.action_name =~ /.*_create/
    }
end

    Hopefully that solves your problem.
