Change the setup of the "pcre2_general_context" to happen per-thread
in compile_pcre2_pattern() instead of in grep_init().
This change brings it in line with how the rest of the pcre2_* members
in the grep_pat structure are set up.
As noted in the preceding commit the approach 513f2b0bbd (grep: make
PCRE2 aware of custom allocator, 2019-10-16) took to allocate the
pcre2_general_context seems to have been initially based on a
misunderstanding of how PCREv2 memory allocation works.
The approach of creating a global context in grep_init() is just added
complexity for almost zero gain. On my system it's 24 bytes saved
per-thread. For comparison PCREv2 will then go on to allocate at least
a kilobyte for its own thread-local state.
As noted in 6d423dd542 (grep: don't redundantly compile throwaway
patterns under threading, 2017-05-25) the grep code is intentionally
not trying to micro-optimize allocations by e.g. sharing some PCREv2
structures globally, while making others thread-local.
So let's remove this special case and make all of them thread-local
again for simplicity. With this change we could move the
pcre2_{malloc,free} functions around to live closer to their current
use. I'm not doing that here to keep this change small, that cleanup
will be done in a follow-up commit.
See also the discussion in 94da9193a6 (grep: add support for PCRE v2,
2017-06-01) about thread safety, and Johannes's comments[1] to the
effect that we should be doing what this patch is doing.

Continue work started in 513f2b0bbd (grep: make PCRE2 aware of custom
allocator, 2019-10-16) and make PCREv2 use our pcre2_{malloc,free}().
functions for allocation. We'll now use it for all PCREv2 allocations.
The reason 513f2b0bbd worked as a bugfix for the USE_NED_ALLOCATOR
issue is because it targeted the allocation freed via free(), as
opposed to by a pcre2_*free() function. I.e. the pcre2_maketables()
and pcre2_maketables_free() pair.
For most of the rest we continued allocating with stock malloc()
inside PCREv2 itself, but didn't segfault because we'd use its
corresponding free().
In a preceding commit of mine I changed the free() to
pcre2_maketables_free() on versions of PCREv2 10.34 and newer. So as
far as fixing the segfault goes we could revert 513f2b0bbd. But then
we wouldn't use the desired allocator, let's just use it instead.
Before this patch we'd on e.g.:
grep --threads=1 -iP æ.*var.*xyz
Only use pcre2_{malloc,free}() for 2 malloc() calls and 2
corresponding free() calls. Now it's 12 calls to each. This can be
observed with the GREP_PCRE2_DEBUG_MALLOC debug mode.
Reading the history of how this bug got introduced it wasn't present
in Johannes's original patch[1] to fix the issue.
My reading of that thread is that the approach the follow-up patches
to Johannes's original pursued were based on misunderstanding of how
the PCREv2 API works. In particular this part of [2]:
"most of the time (like when using UTF-8) the chartable (and
therefore the global context) is not needed (even when using
alternate allocators)"
That's simply not how PCREv2 memory allocation works. It's easy to see
how the misunderstanding came about. It's because (as noted above) the
issue was noticed because of our use of free() in our own grep.c for
freeing the memory allocated by pcre2_maketables().
Thus the misunderstanding that PCREv2's compile context is something
only needed for pcre2_maketables(), and e.g. an aborted earlier
attempt[3] to only set it up when we ourselves called
pcre2_maketables().
That's not what PCREv2's compile context is. To quote PCREv2's
documentation:
"This context just contains pointers to (and data for) external
memory management functions that are called from several places in
the PCRE2 library."
Thus the failed attempts to go down the route of only creating the
general context in cases where we ourselves call pcre2_maketables(),
before finally settling on the approach 513f2b0bbd took of always
creating it, but then mostly not using it.
Instead we should always create it, and then pass the general context
to those functions that accept it, so that they'll consistently use
our preferred memory allocation functions.

Make use of the pcre2_maketables_free() function to free the memory
allocated by pcre2_maketables().
At first sight it's strange that 10da030ab7 (grep: avoid leak of
chartables in PCRE2, 2019-10-16) which added the free() call here
doesn't make use of the pcre2_free() the author introduced in the
preceding commit in 513f2b0bbd (grep: make PCRE2 aware of custom
allocator, 2019-10-16).
The reason is that at the time the function didn't exist. It was first
introduced in PCREv2 version 10.34, released on 2019-11-21.
Let's make use of it behind a macro. I don't think this matters for
anything to do with custom allocators, but it makes our use of PCREv2
more discoverable.
At some distant point in the future we'll be able to drop the version
guard, as nobody will be running a version older than 10.34.

There was never a good reason for this, it's just a relic from when I
initially wrote the PCREv2 support. We're not going to have confusion
about compile_pcre2_pattern() being called when it shouldn't just
because we forgot to cargo-cult this opt->pcre2 option.
Furthermore the "struct grep_opt" is (mostly) used for the options the
user supplied, let's avoid the pattern of needlessly assigning to it.
With my recent removal of the PCREv1 backend in 7599730b7e (Remove
support for v1 of the PCRE library, 2021-01-24) there's even less
confusion around what we call where in these codepaths, which is one
more reason to remove this.

When `git blame --color-by-age`, the determine_line_heat() is called to
select how to color the output based on the commit's author date. It
uses the get_commit_info() to parse the information into a `commit_info`

determine_line_heat() caller also does the same.
Instead, let's change the determine_line_heat() to take a `commit_info`

+ trace2_region_enter("blame", "determine_line_heat", the_repository);
Then, running `git blame` for "kernel/fork.c" in linux.git and summing
all the execution time for every call (around 1.3k calls) resulted in
2.6x faster execution (best out 3):
