rainerscript-align-replace-sizing-rewind.patch rainerscript: align replace sizing rewind
Why:
The sizing pass skipped a candidate match that the copy pass replaced.

Impact:
Overlapping partial matches now receive a correctly sized output string.

Before/After:
Before, the two passes resumed at different source offsets; after, both
resume at the same offset.

Technical Overview:
Make the sizing pass rewind both its source index and tentative output
length by the full failed partial-match length. This mirrors the copy pass
and ensures that every replacement counted is also written exactly once.
The change preserves the existing empty-find, replacement, and trailing
partial-match behavior.
