[PATCH v3 29/30] grep: given --threads with NO_PTHREADS=YesPlease, warn

From: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <hidden>
Date: 2017-05-20 21:44:20
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Add a warning about missing thread support when grep.threads or
--threads is set to a non 0 (default) or 1 (no parallelism) value
under NO_PTHREADS=YesPlease.

This is for consistency with the index-pack & pack-objects commands,
which also take a --threads option & are configurable via
pack.threads, and have long warned about the same under
NO_PTHREADS=YesPlease.
