The patch

Many package vendors nowadays [*] ship git with the PCRE support enabled, a=
nd I
believe our port should at least offer an option to enable it.

My patch has PCRE in the default options list, but the maintainer may think=
 a
different way and I'll be fine with it as long as there is an option.

FWIW, the only use for libpcre in git is currently git grep's -P option, wh=
ich
can be enabled by default by setting "grep.patternType" to "perl".  PCRE wo=
rks
great for code search.

[*] Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora, Homebrew, MacPorts, to name a few
