grep/pcre2: prepare to add debugging to pcre2_malloc()

Change pcre2_malloc() in a way that'll make it easier for a debugging
fprintf() to spew out the allocated pointer.

This doesn't introduce any functional change, it just makes a
subsequent commit's diff easier to read. Changes code added in
513f2b0bbd4 (grep: make PCRE2 aware of custom allocator, 2019-10-16).
