There's a problem with these functions (and the history-search-* ones)
that they are comparing the unmetafied line against metafied history
lines.

The folowing patch fixes that and switches the functions back to using
str[n]cmp() (since they are comparing metafied lines).

I also optimized the second strcmp() call to skip the N characters that
we just compared and found to be equal.

Finally, I changed the history-search-forward function to have a similar
fix that Zephram added to history-beginning-search-forward that allows it
to find the last line in the history.  It's not really the correct fix in
either case (we should probably add a global to store the starting line
of a sequence of ZLE_HISTSEARCH commands), but it handles most of the
search cases people will run into.
