[PATCH 1/2] grep/pcre2: use PCRE2_UTF even with ASCII patterns

From
René Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de>
Date

Message-ID
<5fa6962e-3c1c-6dbc-f6d7-589151a9baec@web.de>

compile_pcre2_pattern() currently uses the option PCRE2_UTF only for patterns with non-ASCII characters. Patterns with ASCII wildcards can match non-ASCII strings, though. Without that option PCRE2 mishandles UTF-8 input, though -- it matches parts of multi-byte characters. Fix that by using PCRE2_UTF even for ASCII-only patterns.

This is a remake of the reverted ae39ba431a (grep/pcre2: fix an edge case concerning ascii patterns and UTF-8 data, 2021-10-15). The change to the condition and the test are simplified and more targeted.
