This is better done as part of the previous patch. The new tests
protect the new code from future breakage.

For this particular one, "test_must_be_empty actual" would suffice,
without comparing with the expected output.

Writing expected output outside test_expect_success that uses it is
a quite old style but that is because this test script is pretty
much ancient, so mimicking it is OK. We'd need to come back later
when the tree is quiescent to clean them up, though (#leftoverbits).

The new tests seem to give us a reasonable test coverage. We could
discard one of the "-m1" vs "-m3" in the early ones, as they do not
give much extra test coverage over the other, to reduce repetition.
We do not test a case where we pick up-to N matches each from
multiple files, though. Perhaps
git grep -m1 -e o -- hello.\*
may stop after hitting "No-op." in hello.ps1 and "stdio" in hello.c,
which may make a good test, perhaps?
Thanks.
