bug#21957: 24.5; Make occur search within regions when there is one

[b4283]

This is a wish request.

The current occur implementation doesn't include a `region' version
which search only within the current region mark by user, instead it
operates on the entire buffer.

It would come in handy if occur searchs within regions as well. Such
behavior is desired, for example, when listing the occurances of a
symbol in the body of a function definition.
