bug#60196: 29.0.60; re-builder should read all forms for the rx syntax

Severity: wishlist

re-builder (rx syntax) currently cannot read multiple forms.  This
results in suboptimal user experience.  For example, even though

    (rx "<i>" (group (*? anychar)) "</i>")

is perfectly fine, but in re-builder, one has to write it as follows:

    '(and "<i>" (group (*? anychar)) "</i>")

Ideally, re-builder should allow users to simply write

    "<i>" (group (*? anychar)) "</i>"

(The relevant function seems to be 'reb-cook-regexp'.)
