A UrlMapping implementation that takes a Grails URL pattern and turns it into a regex matcher so that URLs can be matched and information captured from the match.
A Grails URL pattern is not a regex, but is an extension to the form defined by Apache Ant and used by Spring AntPathMatcher. Unlike regular Ant paths Grails URL patterns allow for capturing groups in the form:
/blog/(*)/**
 
 The parenthesis define a capturing group. This implementation transforms regular Ant paths into regular expressions that are able to use capturing groups
