bug#47909: doc-id searches only match last record in the file

[Robert Weiner]

Hi Brad:

Thanks for the example.  This code had not been touched in a long time.  Your pointer made us have a look and we have updated it and fixed a few issues including yours in the latest Hyperbole git tip commit.  Install that, restart your Emacs and give it another try.  We will close this issue.  -- Bob

If you setup a file like what's at the end of the email, setup the
doc-id-indices variable (NB:  the documentation for that variables needs
updating as it says it's a list but it throws an error on a list and
works with a filename passed in as a string), and add two doc-id links
like the following:

[BigBaboonNation-001]
[BigBaboon-001]

Hyperbole will only find the 'BigBaboon-001' entry.  For the
'BigBaboonNation-001' entry, you'll receive the following error:

   Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, nil

If I switch the entry order in the file, the behavior will swap with
'BigBaboonNation-001' matching.
