Improvements to workflow parameter validators.

- Allow specifying a min/max for integer and float parameters. - Swap language from regex to "Regular Expression" and synchronize help with regular expression fields in rule builder. - Extend regular expression help. - Improve default message for in_range validator. Probably a reversion in some ways introduced with galaxyproject#19027.
