bug#33852: 26.1; unhighlight-regexp unnecessary prompt

Hello,

In hi-lock-mode, after highlighting a single regular expression such
as by M-s h r regexp <RET> <RET>, then unhighlighting with M-s h u,
I'm prompted "Regexp to unhighlight (default regexp):", but any choice
other than the default is rejected with the message "[No Match]". I
would prefer not to be prompted if there is only a single acceptable
choice.

I believe the patch below implements this proposed behavior. Thank you
for taking the time to consider this.
