PATCH: Allow / in full pattern alternations



Well, it was a bit easier than I thought.

% print -l (${(~j:|:)${:-$^fpath/rep*}})
/home/mikaelh/.zsh/functions/repoint
/home/mikaelh/.zsh/functions/repointmany
/usr/local/share/zsh/5.2-dev-1-mika/functions/replace-argument
/usr/local/share/zsh/5.2-dev-1-mika/functions/replace-string
/usr/local/share/zsh/5.2-dev-1-mika/functions/replace-string-again

This patch is obviously pretty ugly, and just intended as a proof of
concept / pile of crap, and it will leak stuff / do weird things if
there was an error in a sub-globpattern.

It is also obviously not intended for inclusion, I just wanted to see
what the code might look like and what would be needed. But if someone
is struck by some inspiration about how to implement this in a way that
is less horrible, feel free to say how :).
