 source code search specifications

This source code search pattern was programmed in the way that
some implementation details could be improved further.
I suggest to avoid unnecessary code repetition also in this script
for the semantic patch language.

Markus Elfring (8):
  Delete an unnecessary SmPL rule
  Omit placeholder specifications from a SmPL constraint
  Optimise a disjunction in the first SmPL rule
  Use type “expression” for another metavariable
  Replace disjunction by a constraint in two SmPL rules
  Use nested disjunctions in the first SmPL rule
  Use string literals directly in two SmPL rules
  Use format string directly in the first SmPL rule

---

V2:
Possible changes were recombined after the deletion of a questionable
SmPL rule.
