Fix text substring search for non-deterministic collations. Due to an off-by-one error, the code failed to find matches at the end of the haystack. Fix by rewriting the loop.
While at it, fix a comment that claimed that the function could find a zero-length match. Such a match could send a caller into an endless loop. However, zero-length matches only make sense with an empty search string, and that case is explicitly excluded by all callers. To make sure it stays that way, add an Assert and a comment.
