Better support for milti-line shell input.

* lisp/comint.el (comint-history-isearch-search)
(comint-history-isearch-wrap): Use field-beginning instead of
comint-line-beginning-position.
(comint-send-input): Go to the end of the field instead of the end
of the line to accept whole multi-line input.
