Yeah, it's a neat trick (which makes people go "ooo").  So disabling it
would be a shame.  But it does make the user experience slightly worse
most of the time...

Actually, we could just tweak it -- today it says "repeat for next
buffer" even if there's no next buffer (it only checks afterwards),
apparently.  Hm...  Right, if eww only sets
`multi-isearch-next-buffer-function' when there's a rel=next/prev, then
this awkwardness disappears.

Now done.
