[GSoC][PATCH 2/4] grep: allow locks to be enabled individually

[Matheus Tavares <matheus.bernardino@usp.br>]

git-grep has some internal locks to protect thread-unsafe operations
when running with threads. The usage of these locks can be toggled
through the variable 'grep_use_locks'. However, it's not currently
possible to enable each lock individually. And since object reading has
its own locks now, it is desirable to disable the respective grep lock
(and only that) in cases where we can do so. To do that, transform
'grep_use_locks' from a binary variable to a bitmask, which controls
each lock individually.

The actual disabling of grep_read_lock, when possible, will be done in
the following patch.
