Use visual line when visual-line-mode is active #227

Description

I mostly write text (markdown or LaTeX) with visual-line-mode turned on, which means my paragraphs are actually (very) long lines. As a result, when I use swiper for searching, whole paragraphs are marked and the lines displayed in the minibuffer are so long that they often have to be truncated and the match is not visible.

Would it be possible to use the visual line for matching / displaying when visual-line-mode is turned on in a buffer? visual-line-mode does a pretty good job at presenting visual lines as actual lines, and using swiper in such a buffer is always a bit confusing.
