[PATCH v13 3/3] grep/pcre2: fix an edge case concerning ascii patterns and UTF-8 data

If we attempt to grep non-ascii log message text with an ascii pattern, we run into the following issue:

    $ git log --color --author='.var.*Bjar' -1 origin/master | grep ^Author
    grep: (standard input): binary file matches

So, to fix this teach the grep code to use PCRE2_UTF, as long as the log output is encoded in UTF-8.

v12: get rid of utf8_all_the_things and fix an issue with one of the unit
     tests.
v13: make some clarifications in the commit message.
