driver: Don't highlight in isearch
zsh version 5.2 and lower don't support ISEARCHMATCH_ACTIVE and we are unable to re-apply zle_highlight on top. Therefore it is impossible to see the underlined matched area. Since that information is more important, completely disable highlighting in isearch in that case. To do that, we need to make sure we are actually called when something changes in isearch. Trumps #257. The FAQ entry presupposes #245 will be fixed (in time for the release) too.

### Why does syntax highlighting not work while searching history?
|
||||
|
||||
_This problem is fixed in zsh 5.3 and newer._

|

Highlighting the command line during an incremental history search
|
||||
(with the `history-incremental-search-backward` widget, which is
|
||||
bound by default to <kbd>Ctrl+R</kbd> in zsh's emacs keymap) requires zsh 5.3
|
||||
or newer.
|
||||
|
||||
Under zsh 5.2 and older, the zsh-default underlining of the matched portion
|
||||
of the buffer remains available, but zsh-syntax-highlighting's additional
|
||||
highlighting is unavailable. (Those versions of zsh do not provide enough
|
||||
information to allow computing the highlighting correctly.)
|
||||
|
||||
See [issue #288][i288] for details.
