Sylvestre Ledru 6e6db248f1 bench: add e2e benchmarks for the grep tldr invocations
Cover the real-world grep usage shapes from the tldr page end-to-end
through uumain over a shared multi-MB corpus (plus a directory with a
binary file for -rI):

  search pattern, -F fixed string, -rI recursive ignoring binary,
  -C 3 context, -Hn --color=always, -o only-matching, -v invert,
  -Ei extended + ignore-case.

Kept alongside the pure-scan throughput benches (literal vs regex, no
match). A rare marker keeps matched output small so the full-file scan
dominates the timing.

Sylvestre Ledru b5816820ed bench: end-to-end search throughput only
Replace the matcher micro-benchmarks with a single end-to-end 'search'
group driven through uumain over a multi-megabyte file: a literal
pattern (which a buffer-at-a-time searcher can accelerate) and an
extended-regex control (which cannot). Matching pre-split lines in
isolation cannot reveal how the searcher feeds data to the matcher;
this does.

Sylvestre Ledru b46a86d48a bench: end-to-end search throughput via uumain
The existing match/throughput benches call Matcher::match_line on
pre-split lines, so they only measure matching in isolation and cannot
observe how the searcher feeds data to the matcher. Add a 'search'
group that drives the whole pipeline through uumain over a multi-MB
file: a literal pattern (which a buffer-at-a-time searcher can speed
up) and an extended-regex control (which it cannot). Uses -q with a
non-matching pattern for a silent full-file scan.
