libripgrep: initial commit introducing libripgrep
libripgrep is not any one library, but rather, a collection of libraries
that roughly separate the following key distinct phases in a grep
implementation:
1. Pattern matching (e.g., by a regex engine).
2. Searching a file using a pattern matcher.
3. Printing results.
Ultimately, both (1) and (3) are defined by de-coupled interfaces, of
which there may be multiple implementations. Namely, (1) is satisfied by
the `Matcher` trait in the `grep-matcher` crate and (3) is satisfied by
the `Sink` trait in the `grep2` crate. The searcher (2) ties everything
together and finds results using a matcher and reports those results
using a `Sink` implementation.
Closes #162
