color-words: enable REG_NEWLINE to help user
We silently truncate a match at the newline, which may lead to
unexpected behaviour, e.g., when matching "<[^>]*>" against
<foo
bar>
since then "<foo" becomes a word (and "bar>" doesn't!) even though the
regex said only angle-bracket-delimited things can be words.
To alleviate the problem slightly, use REG_NEWLINE so that negated
classes can't match a newline. Of course newlines can still be
matched explicitly.
