bug#35326: 26.1; vc-git-grep should pass -i like isearch

The confusion was caused by the original report mentioning `M-x grep'.
In fact, `M-x grep' doesn't expand the template.  Only the following
commands expand the template:

  lgrep
  rgrep
  vc-git-grep

> And should the vc-git version be more like grep or lgrep?

vc-git-grep should be like other commands that expand the template,
i.e. lgrep and rgrep, that the patch in the original report
correctly achieves, so committing it would be an improvement
since `git grep' supports most of grep options, including --color,
-i and -w.

PS: Regarding -w that I proposed previously, I could create
a separate request, but here is a preliminary version:
