grep: fix --devices=ACTION (-D) so stdin is once again exempt
An oversight in the 2.11 changes made it so "echo x|grep x" would fail for those who set GREP_OPTIONS=--devices=skip. * src/main.c (grepdesc): Ignore skip-related options when reading from standard input. * tests/skip-device: New file. Test for the above. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * doc/grep.texi (File and Directory Selection): Clarify this point, documenting the stdin exemption. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it, and add a few "[fixed in ...] notes. Reported by Tino Keitel in http://bugs.debian.org/669084, and forwarded to bug-grep by AnĂ­bal Monsalve Salazar.
