TensorBoard stores regex groups in url bar.

This also causes the regex groups to persist across tab switches.

I also cleaned the code and UI a little; I removed the activation toggle for
the individual regex groups, which is redundant because it
duplicates the existing system for opening/closing tag groups.

Also found and fixed a bug in the TF.URIStorage module.
