[PATCH v11 2/3] pretty: colorize pattern matches in commit messages

[Hamza Mahfooz <someguy@effective-light.com>]

The "git log" command limits its output to the commits that contain strings
matched by a pattern when the "--grep=<pattern>" option is used, but unlike
output from "git grep -e <pattern>", the matches are not highlighted,
making them harder to spot.

Teach the pretty-printer code to highlight matches from the
"--grep=<pattern>", "--author=<pattern>" and "--committer=<pattern>"
options (to view the last one, you may have to ask for --pretty=fuller).

Also, it must be noted that we are effectively greping the content twice
(because it would be a hassle to rework the existing matching code to do
a /g match and then pass it all down to the coloring code), however it only
slows down "git log --author=^H" on this repository by around 1-2%
(compared to v2.33.0), so it should be a small enough slow down to justify
the addition of the feature.

v2: make the commit message whole (add the missing ingredients), rename
    append_matched_line() to append_line_with_color(), use
    colors[GREP_COLOR_MATCH_SELECTED] instead of
    colors[GREP_COLOR_MATCH_CONTEXT], allow the background color to be
    customized, don't copy strings to a buffer when not coloring in
    append_line_with_color(), rename next_match() to grep_next_match(),
    repurpose grep_next_match()/match_one_pattern() for use in
    append_line_with_color() (allowing us to remove duplicated matching
    code in append_line_with_color()), document how to customize the
    feature and modify some of the tests to fit the feature better.

v3: fix a formatting issue with the added documentation.

v4: add strbuf_add_with_color(), use the correct color code scheme in the
    unit tests and add more unit tests.

v5: separate grep changes from pretty changes and add some performance
    analysis in the commit message.

v6: put the documentation in the correct place, cleanup pretty.c and
    format the unit tests according to the current convention.

v7: get rid of all manual strbuf management, constify where now appropriate
    and fix the header line prefix issue properly.

v8: remove code that relies on grep_header_fields[].

v11: clarify why we are grepping twice.
