Search does not expand selection left when appropriate
See original GitHub issueConsider the following terminal buffer:
blah blah tt
Searching for “t” will select the second “t” (because of backwards search), doing an incremental search for “tt” will find no results:
We should cover this edge case where the only result is expanding the selection left. Additionally, if there were 2 results, the selection should be expanded left instead of going to the next one as it’s still technically the same match.

@Tyriar I opened a PR #3125. Please review it when you have time.
Sorry, I found L156-L161 is not unnecessary. We need to check whether the selection can expand to right or not first. Otherwise, the selection moves around each time words are input.
I ended up simply changing search position to selection end after the first search. The final result is here.
