Thanks for this patch, David. Just this weekend I was attempting to
demonstrate the feature of isearch auto-expanding the invisible text to
my brother. I was unlucky enough that my first attempt hit a name that
was split across this boundary.

It seemed to me that it still matched, but it didn't automatically
expand the hidden text.

Anyway, this patch looks like it will fix that problem just fine. Thanks
for contributing this. I've committed it locally now.
