13511	RegexValidator pattern is optional and should be required	David Fischer	David Fischer	While working on ticket #13341, I noticed that the code for RegexValidator could use a slight cleanup. Specifically, the first parameter of RegexValidator -- the regex pattern -- is optional. However, if it is not provided, a TypeError is thrown because the default value of `None` is passed to `re.compile`. The regex pattern should be required.
