The PCRE2 RunGrepTest script uses the Gnu Coreutils form:
head -1

Busybox does not support this shorthand option and reports:
head: invalid option --'1'

which cause the grep tests fail when running ptest on yocto.
Replace head -1 with head -n 1 . This makes RunGrepTest work
correctly.

 This aligns the scripts with POSIX syntax and fixes failing
 grep tests in RunGrepTest (including testtrygrep).
