Merge #12097: [scripts] lint-whitespace: use perl instead of grep -P
40b17f5f9 [scripts] lint-whitespace: use perl instead of grep -P (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  MacOS does not support `grep -P` out of the box. This change makes
  it easier for developers to check for whitespace problems locally.

  Based on [this](https://stackoverflow.com/a/16658690) and [this](https://serverfault.com/a/504387) Stack Exchange answer.

  Tested with:
  ```sh
  export TRAVIS_COMMIT_RANGE='fe78c9a...62e0453'
  contrib/devtools/lint-whitespace.sh
  This diff appears to have added new lines with tab characters instead of spaces.
  The following changes were suspected:

  diff --git a/src/test/bignum_tests.cpp b/src/test/bignum_tests.cpp
