[PATCH/RFC 7/6] gitweb: Use esc_html_match_hl in 'grep' search

Use newly introduced esc_html_match_hl() subroutine in git_search_files() ('grep' search), instead of handcrafted code using captures, which highlighted only first match in line.

This required to enhance esc_html_match_hl() to be able to pass-thru options for esc_html like -nbsp=>1.

Note: because untabify() is run before match, some regexp might not
show match; this is not regression, because earlier versions had the
same behavior.
Code is shorter, and behavior is improved.
