Log:
  src.opts.mk: switch to bsdgrep as /usr/bin/grep

  This has been years in the making, and we all knew it was bound to happen
  some day. Switch to the BSDL grep implementation now that it's been a
  little more thoroughly tested and theoretically supports all of the
  extensions that gnugrep in base had with our libregex(3).

  Folks shouldn't really notice much from this update; bsdgrep is slower th=
an
  gnugrep, but this is currently the price to pay for fewer bugs. Those
  dissatisfied with the speed of grep and in need of a faster implementation
  should check out what textproc/ripgrep and textproc/the_silver_searcher
  can do for them.

  I have some WIP to make bsdgrep faster, but do not consider it a blocker
  when compared to the pros of switching now (aforementioned bugs, licensin=
g).
