bug#41766: Make it possible to change regexp to identify and highlight grep matches via customization

[Simon Lang]

Hi,

I now something to the manual, NEWS and changed the doc string + commit msg as 
advised. I decided on defcustom in the end because this way it is easy for the 
user to figure out what goes wrong in case he/she modifies grep-command and 
highlighting is missing. Hope that is fine.

Pls let me know if there is anything else I need to change.

Thanks!

They are SGR escape sequences that Grep emits to color its output.  We
should probably mention that in the doc string.
