* lisp/simple.el (blink-matching-open): Fix bug#37127

Don't call `syntax-propertize` from within narrowing

* lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode.el (cperl-forward-re): Revert last patch,
since it is now redundant.

* test/lisp/progmodes/cperl-mode-tests.el (cperl-bug37127):
Remove unused var; fix test so it really catches the previous bug;
tweak the code to use mode-agnostic commands so it also works in `perl-mode`.
