    sysutils/debootstrap: switch the port from using gnugrep to pcregrep

    Dependency on GNU grep had been originally added to avoid a pathological
    corner case in BSD grep, where it's about two orders of magnitude slower
    than GNU grep.  As it occurs with one particular pattern type, it could
    instead be solved by depending on pcregrep rather than gnugrep.

    Submitter prefers this solution because pcregrep is already required by
    other programs and does not have potential conflicts with the BSD grep
    from the base.

    PR:     255525, 263279
