grep: extend functionality, add man page entry, add unit test.
walkchangerevs now returns a two-tuple. Its behaviour is also
extensively commented.
The annotate command's getname function has been factored out to a new
function, trimname, so it can be shared between annotate and grep.
The behaviour of grep has been beefed up, so that it now performs a
number of useful functions.

| 213 This command behaves differently than Unix grep. It only accepts | |
| 214 Python/Perl regexps. It searches repository history, not the | |
| 215 working directory. It always prints the revision number in which | |
| 216 a match appears. | |
| 217 | |
| 218 By default, grep only prints output for the first revision of a | |
| 219 file in which it finds a match. To get it to print every revision | |
| 220 that contains a change in match status ("-" for a match that | |
| 221 becomes a non-match, or "+" for a non-match that becomes a match), | |
| 222 use the --every-match flag. | |
