NOTE
----
### Regular Expression Stack Overflow
> [!CAUTION]
> When using complex regex patterns in route handlers, be aware that certain patterns may cause stack overflow during pattern matching. This is a known issue with `std::regex` implementations and affects the `dispatch_request()` method.
>
> ```cpp
> // This pattern can cause stack overflow with large input
> svr.Get(".*", handler);
> ```
>
> Consider using simpler patterns or path parameters to avoid this issue:
>
> ```cpp
> // Safer alternatives
> svr.Get("/users/:id", handler); // Path parameters
> svr.Get(R"(/api/v\d+/.*)", handler); // More specific patterns
> ```
### g++
g++ 4.8 and below cannot build this library since `<regex>` in the versions are [broken](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12530406/is-gcc-4-8-or-earlier-buggy-about-regular-expressions).
