When a new View of a Document is created, a default cursor of 0, 0 is
created, and it does not get normalized to a single width cursor until
at least one movement of the cursor happens. This appears to have no
practical negative effect that I could find, but it makes tests difficult
to work with, since the initial selection is not what you expect it to be.
This changes the initial selection of a new View to be the width of the
first grapheme in the text.
* feat(commands): shrink_selection
Add `shrink_selection` command that can be used to shrink
previously expanded selection.
To make `shrink_selection` work it was necessary to add
selection history to the Document since we want to shrink
the selection towards the syntax tree node that was initially
selected.
Selection history is cleared any time the user changes
selection other way than by `expand_selection`. This ensures
that we don't get some funky edge cases when user calls
`shrink_selection`.

* Refactor shrink_selection, move history to view
* Remove useless comment
* Add default key mapping for extend&shrink selection
* Rework contains_selection method
* Shrink selection without expand selects first child
* feat(commands): ensure_selections_forward
Add command that ensures that selections are in forward direction.
Fixes: https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/issues/1332
* Add keybinding for ensure_selections_forward
Add `A-:` keybinding for the ensure_selections_forward command.
* Re-use range.flip for flip_selections command
* use auto pairs with selections
Previously, the auto pairs code was converting the user selection into
its cursor form, and setting the transaction's selection to that cursor.
This has the effect of destroying the user's selection if they type a
pair character that gets auto completed.
This fixes the code to work with the user's selection, inserting auto
pairs where appropriate, but either keeping or extending the user's
selection.
* use movement::Direction instead of bool
* assume 0-width cursor is forward
Fixes#1077. This was caused by the assumption that a block
cursor is represented as zero width internally and simply
rendered to be a single width selection, where as in reality
a block cursor is an actual single width selection in form and
function.
Behavioural changes:
1. Surround selection no longer works when cursor is _on_ a
surround character that has matching pairs (like `'`
or `"`). This was the intended behaviour from the start
but worked till now because of the cursor position
calculation mismatch.
* Add textobjects for word
* Add textobjects for surround characters
* Apply clippy lints
* Remove ThisWordPrevBound in favor of PrevWordEnd
It's the same as PrevWordEnd except for taking the current char
into account, so use a "flag" to capture that usecase
* Add tests for PrevWordEnd movement
* Remove ThisWord* movements
They did not preserve anchor positions and were only used
for textobject boundary search anyway so replace them with
simple position finding functions
* Rewrite tests of word textobject
* Add tests for surround textobject
* Add textobject docs
* Refactor textobject word position functions
* Apply clippy lints on textobject
