I noticed that matchstr() seems to always interpret ^ as start-of-string and $
as end-of-string, even when the string is multiple lines. ":help pattern" says
they should be start-of-line and end-of-line, respectively.
For example
:echo matchstr("foo\nbar", '^foo$')
matches nothing.
I don't see anything in the matchstr() help indicating that it treats
start-of-line and end-of-line any differently. I tried \_^ and \_$ as well. Is
this a bug?
