[PATCH] VIM: Improve search list

Subject: [PATCH] VIM: Improve search list

Make the width of the search name column expand/contract with the
length of the longest search name string.

Fix syntax highlighting to make the above work right.

Add the ability to use a blank search pattern to create a spacer
to break up searches into groups.
