unix: fix grep syntax to work on non-GNU greps
CL 432835 changed two grep commands in unix/mkerrors.sh in such a way that is incompatible with AIX's grep, which, unlike GNU grep, does not support extended regular expressions without the -E flag. The intent of this PR is to restore the egrep behavior by invoking grep as grep -E. My assumption is that GNU grep is not meant to be a requirement to run mkerrors.sh, and given that, grep -E looks like the most cross-platform approach. Example of current (incorrect) behavior on AIX: bash-5.2$ printf 'SIGHUP\nSIGMAX64\nSIGTERM' | grep -v 'SIGSTKSIZE\|SIGSTKSZ\|SIGRT\|SIGMAX64' SIGHUP SIGMAX64 SIGTERM Behavior before CL 432835: bash-5.2$ printf 'SIGHUP\nSIGMAX64\nSIGTERM' | egrep -v '(SIGSTKSIZE|SIGSTKSZ|SIGRT|SIGMAX64)' SIGHUP SIGTERM Behavior of proposed change: bash-5.2$ printf 'SIGHUP\nSIGMAX64\nSIGTERM' | grep -E -v '(SIGSTKSIZE|SIGSTKSZ|SIGRT|SIGMAX64)' SIGHUP SIGTERM OpenBSD's grep behaves the same as AIX for the above commands, which is why I cast this as GNU vs. non-GNU. I haven't tested any other implementations.
