tramp-handle-insert-file-contents hasn't been touched for about two
months, so it shouldn't be caused by a change in that function. But as
said in bug#57486, there were some bugs when migrating Tramp to use
rx. They are fixed meanwhile (I hope I could detect all of them), which
might explain the behavior.

Btw, tramp-test09-insert-file-contents checks also inserting just a
file region. So the Tramp testsuite should signal regressions here.
