Adding two new string UDFs:
There's some existing functionality for lookalikes in
string.py, specifically theStringCleanUDF. There's a variety of additional things that I've added in this new UDF though (that have also come up quite a bit in the wild)There's likely some additional overhead from using regex for this, but imo the additional flexibility/matching is worth that and the overhead is likely not too extreme, particularly since we're only compiling once per token+config combo anyway.
