Remove redundant assignments to the "regflags" variable. There are no
code paths that have previously set the regflags to anything, and
certainly not to `|= REG_EXTENDED`.
This code gave the impression that it had to reset its environment,
but it doesn't. This dates back to the initial introduction of
git-grep in commit 5010cb5fcc ("built-in "git grep"", 2006-04-30).

Oops, sorry about that. Here's a fixed version. Just sending a v5 for
this, not the entire rest of the series. If you'd like to grab it in
.git form it's github.com/avar/git:avar/pcre2-5, this is the only
change from v4.
