Reintroduce the reverse suffix literal optimization.

It's too good to pass up. This time, we avoid quadratic behavior
with a simple work-around: we limit the amount of reverse searching
we do after having found a literal match. If the reverse search ends
at the beginning of its search text (whether a match or not), then we
stop the reverse suffix optimization and fall back to the standard forward
search.

This reverts commit 50d991e.
