test-grep: document that trivially moved lines might not be detected I'm not going to fix this. I just learned "grep --diff" does clever thing than a simple grep(patch.diff(context=0)), and I think it's better to document how things work.

+Moved line may not be collected by "grep --diff" since it first filters
+the contents to be diffed by the pattern. (i.e.
+"diff <(grep pat a) <(grep pat b)", not "diff a b | grep pat".)
+This is much faster than generating full diff per revision.
