[PATCH v2 2/4] t: remove \{m,n\} from BRE grep usage

["Đoàn Trần Công Danh" <congdanhqx@gmail.com>]

The CodingGuidelines says we should avoid \{m,n\} in BRE usage.
And their usages in our code base is limited, and subjectively
hard to read.

Replace them with ERE.

Except for "0\{40\}" which would be changed to "$ZERO_OID",
which is a better value for testing with:
GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_HASH=sha256

 Yes, I agree. However, I think our usage of \{m,n\} is limited.
 Let's skip the lifting for now.
