Keep the current search match when a view without a selection refreshes

If a view doesn't show a selection, for example a branch's commit log
in the focused main view, n and N step through the matches without
moving a cursor. A refresh then resets the search to the first match,
so the "x of y" status goes back to "1 of y", and the next n starts
over from the top.

Only reset the current match when a new search starts, and keep it when
the search runs again over refreshed content.
