Title:
  Allow searchRoom() to accept search types

Status in Mudlet:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  Going off the user suggestion at
  http://forums.mudlet.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=92&p=19054#p18722 and
  practical experience of having to filter searchRoom() results (or
  create own search function based off getRooms()), it would be really
  useful of searchRoom() accepted a second parameter that defined the
  search type - none for the default of substring, and then "perl regex"
  for perl regex, "exact match" for an exact match, "begin of line
  substring" and "substring".

  I'm not sure how to deal with cases yet - there will be times when you
  will not have exact case of the string you're searching for. Perhaps
  the perl regex search pattern with an (?i) will take care of it,
  though - might be better than introducing a third argument into the
  mix.
