[Feature request] Highlight the regex matching part of the line in the candidates #1147

Description

Similar to how there's (incremental) highlighting for candidates for Ivy/Counsel. For a specific example, I wanted to replace ag with ripgrep so I do a search in my init.el for "ag". Needless to say, I am getting tons of candidates. If the regex matching part of the string in each line is highlighted, it would be far easier to parse each line to see if it's what I'm looking for, rather than reading each line from left to right trying to find all instances of ag.
