grep: teach --debug option to dump the parse tree
Our "grep" allows complex boolean expressions to be formed to match each individual line with operators like --and, '(', ')' and --not. Introduce the "--debug" option to show the parse tree to help people who want to debug and enhance it. Also "log" learns "--grep-debug" option to do the same. The command line parser to the log family is a lot more limited than the general "git grep" parser, but it has special handling for header matching (e.g. "--author"), and a parse tree is valuable when working on it. Note that "--all-match" is *not* any individual node in the parse tree. It is an instruction to the evaluator to check all the nodes in the top-level backbone have matched and reject a document as non-matching otherwise. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
