Got rid of unnecessary special case to match at end-of-string

Instead, I tweaked the rest of the matching function, so that a special
check isn't necessary. If we are trying to match at the end of a string,
we skip any of the actual matching and proceed straight to finding
0-length matches.

This change was made because, with the special case, capturing groups
weren't getting updated if we had an end-of-string match.
