[bug-grep] segfault bug running grep -P when pattern matches last eol

[Claudio Fontana]

Hello,
I've investigated the problem about the grep -P
segfault bug further, and I've understood that it
happens when the perlre pattern matches the last eol.

What happens is that the current code (in
search.c::Pexecute()) assumes that a newline is always
present after the match.

This is not always the case (even considering grep
adds a \n at the eof when not present), because the
match can include the \n, and the end pointer is set
after the match.

I include a tiny patch to fix the problem.

Claudio
