Message filter based on regex

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I find that I get a lot of spam using the exact same canned message.  It
seems the best way to solve this (without blocking users, which I find
undesirable) is to block messages based on a regex matching the message
contents.

I've gone ahead and put together a patch that seems to do what I want. 
Note I don't have much experience with pidgin plugin programming, and my C
is a bit rusty, so there may be bugs/issues.  If there are any problems
feel free to point them out and I'll be happy to update the patch as necessary.

Thanks, that's appreciated. I'll have a look at the code in the next couple of 
days
and hopefully embrace to occasion to finally implement regex-based user blocking
along with it.

This enhancement would be quite useful, when this can be merged into the latest 
plugin?

I plan to do some work on this plugin in the next few days I hope I'll find the 
time.
