A UIAlertController with a text field and the ability to perform validation on the text the user has entered while the alert is on screen. The OK button is only enabled when the entered text passes validation. More info: https://oleb.net/2018/uialertcontroller-textfield/
import UIKit
/// A validation rule for text input.
public enum TextValidationRule {
/// Any input is valid, including an empty string.
case noRestriction
/// The input must not be empty.
case nonEmpty
/// The enitre input must match a regular expression. A matching substring is not enough.
case regularExpression(NSRegularExpression)
