Remove support for Regex ValueMatch:

  • This is not supported in Elastic Search, and would cause an inconsistency with other processors.
  • Allowing Regexes without any form of validation opens the system to "Regular expression Denial of Service" attacks.
  • YAGNI, most operations can be solved using begin/ends/contains matches.

As a small bonus this removes the need for all those Query platforms 🤓
