Thanks to Jim and for the new release.  Let's just start with, for next
release I want to add further improvement to it.

In dfaexec, DFA state is always 0 until have found potential match.  So
we can improve matching there by continuing to use the transition table
without replacing it.

I tested the patch, and got about 3x speed-up.

$ yes j | head -10000000 >k
$ env LC_ALL=C time -p src/grep '\(a\|b\)' k
  Before: real 1.12   user 1.06   sys 0.04
  After : real 0.39   user 0.34   sys 0.04

I also tested for non-utf8 multibyte locale.
$ env LC_ALL=ja_JP.eucJP time -p src/grep '\(a\|b\)' k
  Before: real 1.41   user 1.35   sys 0.05
  After : real 0.38   user 0.32   sys 0.06

By the way, below on grep 2.18 (non-patch). (^_^)

$ env LANG=ja_JP.eucJP time -p src/grep '\(a\|b\)' k
          real 12.00  user 11.86  sys 0.13
