Remove useless RegExp.multiline and RegExp['$*'] static properties

Summary
Remove useless RegExp.multiline and RegExp['$*'] static properties
Claude Pache
Reported

The RegExp constructor has two magic static properties, named "multiline" and "$*", that don't seem to have any observable effect. They exist on V8 also, with no observable effect as well, see:
https://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=3870
They do have an effect in SpiderMonkey, but it is expected to remove them:
