vi: improve handling of anchored searches

Suppose we search for a git conflict marker '<<<<<<< HEAD' using
the command '/^<<<'.  Using 'n' to go to the next match finds
'<<<' on the current line, apparently ignoring the '^' anchor.

Set a flag in the compiled regular expression to indicate that the
start of the string should not be considered a beginning-of-line
anchor.  An exception has to be made when the search starts from
the beginning of the file.  Make a similar change for end-of-line
anchors.

This doesn't affect a default build with VI_REGEX_SEARCH disabled.
When it's enabled:

function                                             old     new   delta
char_search                                          247     285     +38
