As of the Swift 6 compiler, `@_implementationOnly import` is deprecated in favor of `internal import` and as a result the use of `@_implementationOnly import` in this project is generating a lot of diagnostic noise when building the Swift standard library. For Swift libraries with library evolution, `@_implementationOnly import` and `internal import` are roughly functionally equivalent, aside from improved diagnostics for `internal import`. For non-resilient libraries, the main difference is that `internal import` does not actually hide a module dependency from downstream clients because the layout of a type in a non-resilient library may depend on types coming from an `internal import` (with `@_implementationOnly import` the same situation would result in a silent mis-compile, which is the reason that `@_implementationOnly import` is deprecated). The `_RegexParser` module dependency does not need to be hidden from clients since it is installed in standard locations in the SDK/toolchain. Therefore this migration should be safe, regardless of library resilience mode.
