These patches are separated from second part of previous version of this series

  "[PATCHv2 0/8] gitweb: Faster and improved project search"
  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/190852
It is meant to replace 'jn/gitweb-hilite-regions' in pu.

This series adds highlighting of matching string to project search. The per-project 'commit' and 'grep' search already implement match highlighting. Additional goal is to provide beginnings of match highlighting framework, to be used thorough gitweb, reducing code duplication and unifying handling of match highlighting, improving it.

The implementation of match highlighting in this series can highlight correctly multiple matches in single line, as opposed to hand-rolled code for highlighting in 'grep' and 'commit' search types for 'search' action.

Previous version of this series had as a last patch proof-of-concept of using match highlighting infrastructure for per-project search, namely 'grep' search:

  gitweb: Use esc_html_match_hl() in 'grep' search
  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/190852/focus=190860

This version does not include it, among others because of question on how to implement -nbsp=>1 version of match highlighting (see first patch in series for comments). It would be as a separate patch series.
