[PATCH v2] grep: skip UTF8 checks explicitly

["Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belón" <carenas@gmail.com>]

18547aacf5 ("grep/pcre: support utf-8", 2016-06-25) that was released
with git 2.10 added the PCRE_UTF8 flag to PCRE1 matching including a
call to has_non_ascii() to try to avoid breakage if there was non-utf8
encoded content in the haystack.

Usually PCRE is compiled with JIT support (even if is not the default),
and therefore the codepath used includes calling pcre_jit_exec, which
skips UTF-8 validation by design (which might result in crashes or hangs)
but when JIT support wasn't compiled we use pcre_exec instead with the
posibility that grep might be aborted if invalid UTF-8 is found in the
haystack.

PCRE1 provides a flag since Mar 5, 2007 that could be used to skip the
checks explicitly so use that to make both codepaths equivalent (the
flag is ignored by pcre1_jit_exec)

this fix is only implemented for PCRE1 because PCRE2 is likely to have
a better solution (without the risks) instead in the future
