We currently have an edge case when displaying matches for rules that contain strings which can produce unprintable characters (e.g., rules that are entirely hex strings).
Previously, the file report would show all of the rule's matched string patterns which made it hard to narrow down the actual culprit (falling back to
yr scanis usually what I do).This PR corrects the behavior by only showing pattern matches if the match is of non-zero length.
