Merges the code for the Picker and FilePicker into a single Picker that can show a file preview if a preview callback is provided. This change was mainly made to facilitate refactoring out a simple skeleton of a picker that does not do any filtering to be reused in a normal Picker and a DynamicPicker (see #5714; in particular [mikes-comment] and [gokuls-comment]). The crux of the issue is that a picker maintains a list of predefined options (eg. list of files in the directory) and (re-)filters them every time the picker prompt changes, while a dynamic picker (eg. interactive global search, #4687) recalculates the full list of options on every prompt change. Using a filtering picker to drive a dynamic picker hence does duplicate work of filtering thousands of matches for no reason. It could also cause problems like interfering with the regex pattern in the global search. I tried to directly extract a PickerBase to be reused in Picker and FilePicker and DynamicPicker, but the problem is that DynamicPicker is actually a DynamicFilePicker (i.e. it can preview file contents) which means we would need PickerBase, Picker, FilePicker, DynamicPicker and DynamicFilePicker and then another way of sharing the previewing code between a FilePicker and a DynamicFilePicker. By merging Picker and FilePicker into Picker, we only need PickerBase, Picker and DynamicPicker.

| VERSION | ||
A Kakoune / Neovim inspired editor, written in Rust.
The editing model is very heavily based on Kakoune; during development I found myself agreeing with most of Kakoune's design decisions.
For more information, see the website or documentation.
All shortcuts/keymaps can be found in the documentation on the website.
Features
- Vim-like modal editing
- Multiple selections
- Built-in language server support
- Smart, incremental syntax highlighting and code editing via tree-sitter
It's a terminal-based editor first, but I'd like to explore a custom renderer (similar to Emacs) in wgpu or skulpin.
Note: Only certain languages have indentation definitions at the moment. Check
runtime/queries/<lang>/ for indents.scm.
