When one have a search pattern with two characters (eg "ab"), and the first character is the last character of a vector, then it triggers a match, regardless of whether or not the second character appear in the next vector. (so only 'a' is require to match)
This patch fix it.
The bug have been reproduced on neon, sve and x86.
To experience the bug, just reverse the order of the pattern in the benchmark ("ba" instead of "ab" and you'll notice it returns almost instantaneously)
It does produce a 16% slowdown though. It might be faster to process the string 15 chars at a time instead of 16 and thus saving a load each time, but it requires more change than I can do just now.
