Also reported on 32-bit x86.

I think the cause is the code was casting the result of StringRef.find into an int64_t. The failure value of find is StringRef::npos, which is defined as:
static constexpr size_t npos = ~size_t(0);

I think what happens is size_t(0) is 32 bits of 0s, inverted to 32 bits of 1s. This is then cast to int64_t, which you might think would sign extend from the most significant bit, but if it did not and just added 0s, then the result would always be > 0. So I could be wrong about the exact cause here, but switching to size_t throughout fixes the issue.

Also I don't see a reason it needs to be a signed number, given that it always searches forward from the current offset.
