`reb-update-overlays' highlights all matches in the buffer.
This is like what lazy-highlighting does.  But we agreed
that it should affect only the current isearch match,
not all lazy-highlighted matches.

Yes, and query-replace highlighting could share it too.

>> The only thing we need from re-builder.el are faces
>> reb-match-1, reb-match-2, reb-match-3.  We should try
>> using the existing faces for the same functionality.
