Alex Vandiver d3091a6096 requirements: Add google-re2, a drop-in replacement for re using re2.
re2[1] compiles (strictly) regular expressions to deterministic finite
automata, which guarantees linear-time behavior; `google-re2` is a
drop-in replacement for the `re` module which uses re2 under the hood.

Of the files, only dev, prod, and mypy have been used in the install scripts directly. The rest are implicit dependencies.

Steps to update a lock file, e.g. to update ipython from 5.3.0 to latest version:

  1. Remove entry for ipython==5.3.0 in dev.txt.
  2. Run ./tools/update-locked-requirements, which will generate new entries, pinned to the latest version.
  3. Increase PROVISION_VERSION in version.py.
  4. Run ./tools/provision to install the new deps and test them.
  5. Commit your changes.
