Describe your bug.

This is similar to #2420, and I understand why that's WONTFIX. This is different though.

Using a multiline regexp, when the regexp matches strings that come immediately one after another, it bungles the line numbers of all of them. Easier to show you with a reproduction example:

What are the steps to reproduce the behavior?

Save a file test.txt containing:

:properties:
:id: fnord
:end:
:properties:
:id: boccob
:end:
:properties:
:id: d321fdddffff
:end:
:properties:
:id: clowns
:end:

Then run

rg -nU '^:properties:\n:id: (.*)\n:end:' -r '$1' test.txt

What is the actual behavior?

The result is

1:fnord
2:boccob
3:d321fdddffff
4:clowns

Only the first hit is correct.

You can see that the line numbers will be correctly reported if you modify the file to add a newline after each instance of ":end:".

What is the expected behavior?

Expected the result:

1:fnord
4:boccob
7:d321fdddffff
10:clowns
