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.
This is an attempt to clean up the inconsistent way that keys are
written in various places. These rules require the fewest changes to the
existing text.
Use the "Key name", as defined in remapping.md, which uses
"Some-Modifiers-PascalCaseKey". The "Representation", which uses
"S-M-lowercasekey", is only used for configuration entries.
For key combinations which do not present a popup, just present the keys
one after the other, with no intervening space, like `]p`.
For key combinations which present a popup, separate them with ` + `,
like `Space + f`.
The Ctrl modifier is called Ctrl, not Control.
* Keep arrow and special keys in insert
Advanced users won't need it and is useful for beginners.
Revert part of #3671.
* Change text for insert mode section
Co-authored-by: Blaž Hrastnik <blaz@mxxn.io>
* 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.

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.

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?
Currently, the picker's re-using a few bindings which are also present
in the prompt. This causes some editing behaviours to not function on
the picker.
**Ctrl + k** and **Ctrl + j**
This should kill till the end of the line on prompt, but is overridden
by the picker for scrolling. Since there are redundancies (`Ctrl + p`,
`Ctrl + n`), we can remove it from picker.
**Ctrl + f** and **Ctrl + b**
This are used by the prompt for back/forward movement. We could modify
it to be Ctrl + d and Ctrl + u, to match the `vim` behaviour.
* Add missing key bindings to keymap docs
* Add a note about readline bindings in insert mode
* Rewrite section on selection extend mode
We seem to have settled on this model, so no reason to say in the
docs that this is experimental. I also don't think we have any
movements that don't obey extend mode left.

* Add arrow key mappings for tree-sitter parent/child/sibling nav
This helps my use case, where I use a non-qwerty layout with a
programmable mechanical keyboard, and use a layer switching key (think
fn) to send left down up right from the traditional hjkl positions.
* Add new bindings to docs
* add select_next_sibling and select_prev_sibling commands
* refactor objects to use higher order functions
* address clippy feedback
* move selection cloning into commands
* add default keybindings under left/right brackets
* use [+t,]+t for selecting sibling syntax nodes
* setup Alt-{j,k,h,l} default keymaps for syntax selection commands
* reduce boilerplate of select_next/prev_sibling in commands
* import tree-sitter Node type in commands
* 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`.
