Fixed sre bug "[#581080] Provoking infinite scanner loops".
This bug happened because: 1) the scanner_search and scanner_match methods
were not checking the buffer limits before increasing the current pointer;
and 2) SRE_SEARCH was using "if (ptr == end)" as a loop break, instead of
"if (ptr >= end)".
* Modules/_sre.c
  (SRE_SEARCH): Check for "ptr >= end" to break loops, so that we don't
  hang forever if a pointer passing the buffer limit is used.
  (scanner_search,scanner_match): Don't increment the current pointer
  if we're going to pass the buffer limit.
* Misc/NEWS
  Mention the fix.
