[asterisk-users] Check if variable contains strings

[Danny Nicholas]

This worked in 1.4.30
; regex test
exten => 1234,1,Answer
exten => 1234,n,Set(footest=foobar)
exten => 1234,n,verbose(test value ${footest})
exten => 1234,n,Set(test=${REGEX("[foo]" ${footest})})
exten => 1234,n,verbose(test returned ${test})
exten => 1234,n,Playback(vm-goodbye)
exten => 1234,n,hangup

This line did not
exten => 1234,n,Set(test=${REGEX("/foo/" ${footest})})

core show function REGEX. Should work well as long as the string to
match has no special characters of its own.
