fix(grep_string): cast search value to string (#3319)

When using the vim command API and passing a number to the `search`
option of `grep_string` (eg. `:Telescope grep_string search=3`), the
number is passed as a number. This eventually causes a type error at
`string.gsub` as the `search` value is expected to be a string.

We'll just cast `search` value to a string.
