Description
Grepper works well with folder:
```bash
:Grepper -tool grep -noprompt -quickfix -highlight -grepprg grep -n -i name ./src
```
While works bad with file:
```bash
:Grepper -tool grep -noprompt -quickfix -highlight -grepprg grep -n -i name ./package.json
```
which will produce a quickfix like(noticed that filename is not captured):
```text
2: "name": "bank-demo",||
```

Research direction
Reproduce the two :Grepper commands from the issue, comparing folder and single-file input and the resulting quickfix entries. Trace the grep output parsing and quickfix filename handling used by the Vim plugin. Done means the single-file command retains ./package.json in its quickfix entry while folder searches continue to work.
