[RFC][PATCH] grep: enable threading for context line printing

From

<4B9D2864.9090808@lsrfire.ath.cx>

This patch makes work_done() in builtin/grep.c print hunk marks between files if threading is used, while show_line() in grep.c still does the same in the other case. The latter is controlled by the struct grep_opt member show_hunk_mark: 0 means show_line() prints no hunk marks between files, 1 means it prints them before the next file with matches and 2 means it prints them before matches from the current file.

Having two places for this is a bit ugly but it enables parallel grep for the common -ABC options. Locking should be fine in add_work().

Comments?
