Description
`test.txt`
```
a line
// bellow is a line
a line
a line
```
---
`:CtrlSF 'a line'` works fine:
**4** matched lines across **1** files. Done!
`a line`
// bellow is `a line`
`a line`
`a line`
---
However `:CtrlSF -R '//.*a line'.*\n.*a line.*` prints file with match, but doesn't count it nor highlight:
**0** matched lines across **1** files. Done!
a line
// bellow is a line
a line
a line

Also, rg `--multiline` flag is not supported. Tho I was able to test it with `let g:ctrlsf_extra_backend_args={ 'rg': '--multiline' }`, it worked the same way as simulated above.
