The clipboard special registers are able to retain multiple selections
and also join the value when copying it to the clipboard. So by default
we should yank regularly to the '*' and '+' registers. That will have
the same behavior for the clipboards but will allow pasting multiple
selections if the clipboard doesn't change between yanks.
* Add command for merging non-consecutive ranges
* Add `merge_selections` command to book
* Simplify `merge_ranges`
Heeded the advice of @the-mikedavis to stop iterating over all ranges and simply merge the first and the last range, as the invariants of `Selection` guarantee that the list of ranges is always sorted and never empty.
* Clarify doc comment of `merge_ranges`
Add a restart debug session command, which would issue a
[Restart Request][1], if the debugger supports it and a session is
running. It uses the same arguments and requests used to start the
initial session, when recreating it.
It builds upon #5532, making use of the changes to the termination
workflow of a session.

When the Kitty Keyboard Protocol is enabled, S-backspace is
distinguished from backspace with no modifiers. This is awkward when
typing because it's very easy to accidentally hold shift and press
backspace temporarily when typing capital letters.
Kakoune (which is also a Kitty Keyboard Protocol application) treats
S-backspace as backspace too:

* rework positioning/rendering, enables softwrap/virtual text
This commit is a large rework of the core text positioning and
rendering code in helix to remove the assumption that on-screen
columns/lines correspond to text columns/lines.
A generic `DocFormatter` is introduced that positions graphemes on
and is used both for rendering and for movements/scrolling.
Both virtual text support (inline, grapheme overlay and multi-line)
and a capable softwrap implementation is included.

* Change default TS object bindings
Changes 'match inside/around' bindings for:
- type definition from `c` to `t`
- comments from `o` to `c`
- tests from `t` to `T`
Also changes those for the `]` / `[` bindings.
* Update docs for changed keybinds
Co-authored-by: Michael Davis <mcarsondavis@gmail.com>
Also changes workspace diagnostic picker bindings to <space>D and
changes the debug menu keybind to <space>g, the previous diagnostic
picker keybind. This brings the diagnostic picker bindings more in
line with the jump to next/previous diagnostic bindings which are
currently on ]d and [d.
* Keep arrow and special keys in insert
Advanced users won't need it and is useful for beginners.

* Remove ctrl-up/down in insert
* Reorganize insert keys and docs
* Improve page up experience on last tutor
The last tutor page can page down multiple times and it will break the
heading on the 80x24 screen paging when reaching the last page, this
keeps the style the same and make sure page up and down won't break it.

* keymap: Rename A "Insert at end of line"
The language for the `A` binding is potentially confusing because
`A` behaves like `i` done at the end of the line rather than `a`.
This change renames the command to match Kakoune's language[^1].
[^1]: 021da117cf/src/normal.cc (L2229)
* keymap: Rename I `insert_at_line_start`
* Select inserted space after join
* Split join_selections with space selection to A-J
Kakoune does that too and some users may still want to retain their selections.
* Update join_selections docs
Helix is first and foremost a modal editor. Willingness to support non-modal
editing is there, but it is not one that should be encouraged with the default
settings. There are an increasing number of users who are stumbling because
they are trying to use Helix as a non-modal editor, so this is an effort to
encourage new users to stop and take notice that Helix has a different paradigm
than VSCode, Sublime, etc. Users can still add these bindings back to their own
configs if they wish.
* let extend-line respect range direction

These are read-line-like bindings which we'd like to minimize in
insert mode in general.
In particular these two are troublesome if you have a low
`editor.idle-timeout` config and are using LSP completions: the
behavior of C-n/C-p switches from moving down/up lines to moving
down/up the completion menu, so if you hit C-n too quickly
expecting to be in the completion menu, you'll end up moving down
a line instead. Using C-p moves you back up the line but doesn't
re-trigger the completion menu. This kind of timing related change
to behavior isn't realistically that big of a deal but it can be
annoying.
Ctrl-based shortcuts are common in numerous applications.
This change:
- Adds Ctrl+{Left/Right/Backspace/Delete} for word-wise movement/deletion in prompt, picker, …
- Removes Alt-Left and Alt-Right in prompt, picker, …
- Adds Alt-Delete in insert mode for forward word deletion
In some terminals, Alt-Backspace might not work because it is ambigous.
See: https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/2193#issuecomment-1105042501
Hence, Alt alternative is not removed.

* Add a check for being past rope end in end position calc
* Include the EOL character in calculations
* Bind to `A-x` for now
* Document new keybind
* add Tree::swap_split_in_direction()

respectively in the Window menu(s)
* add test for view swapping
Change the layout of existing split view from horizontal to vertical and
vica-versa. It only effects the focused view and its siblings, i.e. not
recursive.
Command is mapped to 't' or 'C-t' under the Window menus.
Currently A-left move one word left and the behavior will be more
consistent for people coming GUI world if the key was changed to control
given that both browsers and editors like vscode uses C-left right by
default to move word rather than alt.
A-hl currently is not very consistent with hl when next object is
selected, since it may go up/down or left/right and this behavior is
confusing such that some people think it should swap the keys with A-jk,
so it is better to use A-pn since that only specifies two direction.
A-jk have the same issue as in it usually moves right and is not
consistent with the behavior of jk so people may think A-hl is better,
maybe A-oi is better here since A-hl will be swapped to A-pn, A-oi can
convey the meaning of in and out, similar to some window manager keys?
The `file_picker_at_current_directory` command opens the file picker at
the current working directory (CWD). This can be useful when paired with
the built-in `:cd` command which changes the CWD.
It has been mapped to `space F` by default.
