Getting the following when using gvm on Fedora 38: egrep:

warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E

This was a change made in September 2022 in version GNU Grep 3.8+

Edit: Reading the official release notes for Grep 3.8, egrep seems to be deprecated since 2007 so it should be fairly safe to replace these and maintain backwards compatability.

Replaces egrep with grep -E in gvm_export_path function
56090ae 
`egrep` is listed as deprecated and in Fedora 38, is outputting the message "warnin: egrep is obsolescent". According to moovweb#431, the official release notes from Grep 3.8 state egrep has been deprecated since 2007.

This PR replaces `egrep` in gvm_export_path with `grep -E`.

`egrep` is mentioned in a couple of the files in `./examples/native/`, but as I don't think they're critical to the use of GVM, I have not attempted to replace them.

Fixes moovweb#431
