[PATCH 05/12] grep: run setup_git_directory_gently() sooner

From: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com>

git grep already runs a repository search unconditionally, even when the --no-index option is supplied; running such a search earlier is not very risky.

Just like with shortlog, without this change, the “[pager] grep” configuration is not respected at all.

Aside from rewriting the commit message and adding tests, this
drops the interesting
 -		/* die the same way as if we did it at the beginning */
 -		setup_git_directory();
 +		die("No git repository found");

hunk. That change might be a good idea but it does not fit the theme of this chapter.
