fgrep/grep -F will error out at runtime if compiled with a regex(3)
that does not define REG_NOSPEC or REG_LITERAL. glibc is one such regex(3)
implementation, and as it turns out they don't support literal matching at
all.
Provide a primitive literal matcher for use with glibc and other
implementations that don't support literal matching so that we don't
completely lose fgrep/grep -F if compiled against libgnuregex on stable/10,
stable/11, or other systems that we don't necessarily support.
This is a wholly unoptimized implementation with no plans to optimize it as
of now. This is due to both its use-case being primarily on unsupported
systems in the near-distant future and that it's reinventing the wheel that
we already have available as a feature of regex(3).

Previously, when given a negative -A/-B/-C argument bsdgrep would
overflow the respective context flag(s) and exhibited surprising
behavior.
Fix this by removing unsignedness of Aflag/Bflag and erroring out if
we're given a value < 0. Also adjust the type used to track 'tail'
context in procfile() so that it accurately reflects the Aflag value
rather than overflowing and losing trailing context.
This also fixes an inconsistency previously existing between -n and
-C "n" behavior. They are now both limited to LLONG_MAX, to be
consistent.
Add some test cases to make sure grep errors out properly for both
negative context values as well as non-numeric context values rather
than giving bogus matches.

-w flag matching with an empty pattern was generally 'broken', allowing
matches to occur on any line whether or not it actually matches -w
criteria.
This fix required a good amount of refactoring to address. procline()
is altered to *only* process the line and return whether it was a match
or not, necessary to be able to short-circuit the whole function in case
of this matchall flag. -m flag handling is moved out as well because it
suffers from the same fate as context handling if we bypass any actual
pattern matching.
The matching context (matches, mostly) didn't previously exist outside
of procline(), so we go ahead and create context object for file
processing bits to pass around. grep_printline() was created due to
this, for the scenarios where the matches don't actually matter and we
just want to print a line or two, a la flushing the context queue and
no -o or --color specified.
Damage from this broken behavior would have been mitigated by the fact
that it is unlikely users would invoke grep -w with an empty pattern.
This was identified while checking PR 105221 for problems it this may
cause in BSD grep, but PR 105221 is *not* a report of this behavior.

Bugs have been found in the fastmatch implementation as used in bsdgrep.
Some have been fixed (r316495) while fixes for others are in review
(D10098).
In comparison with the fastmatch implementation, Kyle Evans found that:
- regex(3)'s performance with literal expressions offers a speed
improvement over fastmatch
- regex(3)'s performance, both with simple BREs and EREs, seems to be
comparable
The regex implementation was imported in r226035, and the commit message
reports:
This is a temporary solution until the whole regex library is
not replaced so that BSD grep development can continue and the
backported code gets some review and testing. This change only
improves scalability slightly, there is no big performance boost
yet but several minor bugs have been found and fixed.
Introduce a WITH_/WITHOUT_BSD_GREP_FASTMATCH knob to support testing
of both approaches.

While I'm there plug a few of memory leaks.
Deliverables: Small and clean code (1,4 KSLOC vs GNU's 8,5 KSLOC),
lower memory usage than GNU grep, GNU compatibility,
BSD license.
TODO: Performance is somewhat behind GNU grep but it is only
significant for bigger searches. The reason is complex, the
most important factor is that GNU grep uses lots of
optimizations to improve the speed of the regex library.
First, we need a modern regex library (practically by adopting
TRE), add support for GNU-style non-standard regexes and then
reevalute the performance issues and look for bottlenecks. In
the meantime, for those, who need better performance, it is
possible to build GNU grep by setting WITH_GNU_GREP.
