Allow regex in Alert Manager

Being able to use regex to filter nodes in alerts would be tremendously helpful, especially for companies which didn't/don't have standard naming practices. We have a couple hundred F5 pools being monitored and without regex we need dozens of entries in our alert to select the nodes we want.

I actually don't have a use for this, but I am a firm believer that all string matches should be Regex. Elect me a president and I'll make it a law. And all vehicle gas caps/charging ports should be on the drivers side.

Though I do understand this would be very hard. The match is SQL, so maybe we need to submit an upstream feature request with Microsoft to add regex matching to Microsoft SQL server. I mean come on, what is this, the 1970s?
