Rollup merge of rust-lang#127707 - Zalathar:expand-until, r=Nadrieril

match lowering: Use an iterator to find `expand_until`

A small cleanup that I noticed while looking at rust-lang#127164.

This makes it easier to see that the split point is always the index after the found item, or the whole list if no stopping point was found.

r? `@Nadrieril`
