Support for custom regular expressions #115

Not yet. However this is a good feature addition. Right now, there a RegexScanner which uses CommonRegex for a list of regular expressions and maps it to PIITypes. In a custom scanner, the list can be picked up from a json file. Each item in the list should consist of the regular expression and the PIIType it maps to. Does this sound reasonable? Are you open to contributing this feature? |

PIIType as enum cannot be extended. Change PIIType to a base class that can be inherited to create new PII types. Consequently, do not create an enum in Postgres. Serialize and deserialize to JSON and store in the database using Pydantic. Related to tokern/piicatcher#115

Detectors detect PII. Change PII Type to class hierarchy instead of enums. With this change new PII types can be defined. Support adding plugins using entry points for new detectors. Remove spacy detector and convert it into plugin hosted in another repository. Fix tokern#115

Is there a way to add custom regular expressions? If not, having support that from configuration or another JSON file would be super useful and it will make piicatcher useful for a wider audience.
