Subject: [PATCH] Show infobox to hint textobjects with `mi` and `ma` (#1686)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

* Show infobox to hint textobjects with `mi` and `ma`

* Add note to infobox than any pair of characters will work too

The wording could probably be a little more clear, but I wanted to
keep it short but still accurate.

* Don't allocate a vec for the static help text

* Fix bug where `mi<esc>` would swallow next input and persist infobox

* Better help text for arbitrary pair matching in textobject selection

* Add way to add fake pending key data below status, use with `mi`/`ma`

This is a bit hacky as it makes use of global state which will end
up managed in multiple places, but has precedent in the way autoinfo
works. There should probably be a bigger refactor to handle this
kind of state better.

* Return early on anything other than `mi` and `ma` for autoinfo

* Remove "ascii" from help text with `mi` and `ma`

* Update helix-term/src/ui/editor.rs
