bug#31796: 26.1; dired-do-find-regexp-and-replace fails to find multiline regexps

[Žygimantas Bruzgys]

1) Create ~/test with a file with following contents:
multi
line

2) Visit directory using dired: C-f ~/test
3) Initiate regexp-replace by hitting Q
4) multi[[:space:]]line RET singeline RET
5) See that dired regexp replace failed reporting that no results were
found
6) Visit a file you have just created.
7) Initiate query-replace-regexp with C-M-%
8) Accept the suggested (previous) query-replace by hitting RET
9) See that the query is actually correct and finds the result.
