Page modification request: unify grep documentation #19922

Command description

Currently there is a ton of repeated and mismatching documentation. This should be unified. I cut down some of it in #19920, but more work could be done.

While the most commonly used methods like invert match and ignore case should be documented in all of them, do take into account the individual needs and usecases of each tool.
