next_result should select the result

#1

The next_result command iterates through Find-All results. It’s very convenient in that it usually* brings you to the correct line in the file, but inconvenient in that it doesn’t select the result in the way that find_next does. I find myself running next_result and then find_next just to select the result. Could these be combined? It would be cool too if next_result could also then iterate through multiple results on the same line.

*If the buffer is open and has been changed externally, it will be automatically reloaded on activation when next_result is called. In such cases, the view changes to the right spot but the selection stays at the first line.
