Ok, done.

I also updated the implementation of 
'eshell-(forward|backward)-matching-input' to benefit from fields. (I 
didn't notice these functions earlier.) This reimplementation makes it 
work better than before, since you can now search for a regexp like 
"^echo" to find only inputs that *started* with "echo". Previously, that 
wasn't possible. I also added a regression test for it.
