So we gain about 35% by using the kwset code.

As a side effect of using kwset two grep tests are fixed by this
patch. The first is fixed because kwset can deal with case-insensitive
search containing NULs, something strcasestr cannot do. The second one
is fixed because we consider patterns containing NULs as fixed strings
(regcomp cannot accept patterns with NULs).
