Harden the implementation against ecosystem changes by making the Prelude imports explicit.
Since there are no practical means to test this against GHC < 8, we drop support for GHC 7 explicitly, bumping to base >= 4.9.
All dependencies of regex-base ship with GHC, so maintaining precise upper bounds is just busy-work. Thus, we make upper-bounds major-major, so we just get the very strong signals of drastic API changes. Usual API changes should not affect this very stable package.
