24c30e0b6 (wt-status: tolerate dangling marks, 2020-09-01) adds a test
that uses a BRE which breaks at least with OpenBSD's grep.

switch to an ERE as it is done for similar checks and while at it, remove
the now obsolete test_i18ngrep call.
Thanks, obviously correct.

I wonder if we can more automate detection of such a bug---it is
unfortunate that it has become very hard to avoid GNUisms as
everybody, even Windows folks, is more likely to be with GNU tools
than BSD tools X-<.
