Text completion does not include words with UTF-8 characters that take up more that a single byte

Minimal reproducible full config

A default config should repro this. I haven't changed anything that has to do with this.

Description

Here I have a piece of text attăăăă with a few Romanian letters that take up 2 bytes each. As you can see, the completion does not include this word as a completion option.

If I do normal a's instead, it does offer that as an option.

Steps to reproduce

Type a word that has e.g. Romanian letters in it (but I suspect that this is the case for any multibyte characters);
Type e.g. the first letter of that word;
Request buffer completion.

Expected behavior

The word is shown as an option.

Actual behavior

It's not.

Additional context

Vim's <C-p> word completion does work with this.
