Simplify regular expression handling #4244

Open noomorph opened 6 months ago

Describe your idea

Detox API has all those blacklist regexps in launchApp arguments and Device APIs, but they are hard to grasp due to various escaping and platform issues.

I suggest to make a breaking change and ensure that passing /plain-regexp/ and /plain-regexp/.source (as a string) would produce exactly the same results for both iOS and Android drivers (at max possible extent, taking into account platform differences).

The regexp in launch args should be passable as an array for more comfort.
