Fix for SF bug #1067402: Error in syntax highlighting with sub-pattern.
For this, the regular expression needed to be extended such that it allows
imposing a boundary on the matching (instead of letting matches extend till
the terminating \0). This also enabled me to lift a minor limitation of the
look-behind matching. Also fixed 5 probably very old bugs in the regex
engine that could easily result in crashes (try replacing \y+ with abc in an
empty document for an instant crash).
