tests: make the grep pattern in remotefilelog-gcrepack portable (issue6122)...
tests: make the grep pattern in remotefilelog-gcrepack portable (issue6122) test-remotefilelog-gcrepack was using "\" to escape "|" in the grep pattern. The most of implementations ignore "\" when it is followed by "|", so the regex works. However, OpenBSD doesn't ignore "\" and considers "|" part of the text instead of create two branches. Neither of both behaviors violate POSIX. This change removes the unnecessary escape character and changes grep to egrep, so the extended regular expression works on every unix. This is part of the bug 6122. Tested on OpenBSD, GNU, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Solaris 11 and BusyBox. Credits to Todd C. Miller, Paul de Weerd and Ingo Schwarze for helping me with it.

The censor system allows retroactively removing content from
files. Actually censoring a node requires using the censor extension,
but the functionality for handling censored nodes is partially in core.
Censored nodes in a filelog have the flag ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` set,
and the contents of the censored node are replaced with a censor
tombstone. For historical reasons, the tombstone is packed in the
filelog metadata field ``censored``. This allows censored nodes to be
(mostly) safely transmitted through old formats like changegroup
versions 1 and 2. When using changegroup formats older than 3, the
receiver is required to re-add the ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` flag when
storing the revision. This depends on the ``censored`` metadata key
never being used for anything other than censoring revisions, which is
true as of January 2017. Note that the revlog flag is the
authoritative marker of a censored node: the tombstone should only be
consulted when looking for a reason a node was censored or when revlog
flags are unavailable as mentioned above.
The tombstone data is a free-form string. It's expected that users of
censor will want to record the reason for censoring a node in the
tombstone. Censored nodes must be able to fit in the size of the
content being censored.
