Searches forward for str. Any match is returned by setting
match_start to the first character of the match and match_end to the
first character after the match. The search will not continue past
limit. Note that a search is a linear or O(n) operation, so you
may wish to use limit to avoid locking up your UI on large
buffers.
If the GTK_SOURCE_SEARCH_VISIBLE_ONLY flag is present, the match may
have invisible text interspersed in str. i.e. str will be a
possibly-noncontiguous subsequence of the matched range. similarly,
if you specify GTK_SOURCE_SEARCH_TEXT_ONLY, the match may have
pixbufs or child widgets mixed inside the matched range. If these
flags are not given, the match must be exact; the special 0xFFFC
character in str will match embedded pixbufs or child widgets.
If you specify the GTK_SOURCE_SEARCH_CASE_INSENSITIVE flag, the text will
be matched regardless of what case it is in.
Same as gtk_text_iter_forward_search(), but supports case insensitive
searching.
