1566522 - Misplaced search result highlighting when searching for Maybe<

Status: NEW

There are two strange things happening in this search:

1. Most of the search results do contain the string Maybe< inside the line, but the highlighting is applied to the variable name after the type. E.g. in the second search result, Maybe<RelationType> relationType;, the 6 characters relati are highlighted.
2. Some of the search results do not contain the string Maybe< inside the line. For example explicit sdnAccessible(nsINode* aNode) : mNode(aNode) {.

Similar result on searching nsBlockFrame: class nsComboboxDisplayFrame final : public nsBlockFrame { highlights nsComboboxDi.
