Fardo does nothing when the search pattern has a word boundary

[jliptrap]

Repro

echo "Hello." > hello.txt
nvim
:Far Hello\> hi hello.txt
:Fardo

Log per the :h far-bugs instructions: far.vim.log

Workaround

:let g:far#source = 'ack'
:Far Hello(\W) hi\1 hello.txt

Remarks

• This bug doesn't seem to depend on the backend; it's present using ack as well as the default vimgrep, regardless of whether I use \> or \b.

• It would be great if there were a whole-word option, like -W in ctrlsf.vim, since renaming a function or searching for all its call sites are such common operations.

I second this. I'm using ripgrep as source. Both :F and :Far are able to find the respective lines, however :Fardo fails for all lines.

[jliptrap]

Now that we have :Farf and :Farr, I just use them instead of :Far, since they support whole-word search.

BTW I really appreciate far.vim, it's a huge timesaver!
