Make selection an exclusive range (#18106)
Selection is generally stored as an inclusive start and end. This PR
makes the end exclusive which now allows degenerate selections, namely
in mark mode. This also modifies mouse selection to round to the nearest
cell boundary (see #5099) and improves word boundaries to be a bit more
modern and make sense for degenerate selections (similar to #15787).

Closes #5099
Closes #13447
Closes #17892

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
- Buffer, Viewport, and Point
- Introduced a few new functions here to find word boundaries, delimiter
class runs, and glyph boundaries.
- 📝These new functions should be able to replace a few other functions
(i.e. `GetWordStart` --> `GetWordStart2`). That migration is going to be
a part of #4423 to reduce the risk of breaking UIA.
- Viewport: added a few functions to handle navigating the _exclusive_
bounds (namely allowing RightExclusive as a position for buffer
coordinates). This is important for selection to be able to highlight
the entire line.
- 📝`BottomInclusiveRightExclusive()` will replace `EndExclusive` in the
UIA code
- Point: `iterate_rows_exclusive` is similar to `iterate_rows`, except
it has handling for RightExclusive
- Renderer
- Use `iterate_rows_exclusive` for proper handling (this actually fixed
a lot of our issues)
- Remove some workarounds in `_drawHighlighted` (this is a boundary
where we got inclusive coords and made them exclusive, but now we don't
need that!)
- Terminal
   - fix selection marker rendering
- `_ConvertToBufferCell()`: add a param to allow for RightExclusive or
clamp it to RightInclusive (original behavior). Both are useful!
- Use new `GetWordStart2` and `GetWordEnd2` to improve word boundaries
and make them feel right now that the selection an exclusive range.
- Convert a few `IsInBounds` --> `IsInExclusiveBounds` for safety and
correctness
   - Add `TriggerSelection` to `SelectNewRegion`
- 📝 We normally called `TriggerSelection` in a different layer, but it
turns out, UIA's `Select` function wouldn't actually update the
renderer. Whoops! This fixes that.
- TermControl
- `_getTerminalPosition` now has a new param to round to the nearest
cell (see #5099)
- UIA
- `TermControlUIAProvider::GetSelectionRange` no need to convert from
inclusive range to exclusive range anymore!
- `TextBuffer::GetPlainText` now works on an exclusive range, so no need
to convert the range anymore!

## Validation Steps Performed
This fundamental change impacts a lot of scenarios:
- Rendering selections
- Selection markers
- Copy text
- Session restore
- Mark mode navigation (i.e. character, word, line, buffer)
- Mouse selection (i.e. click+drag, shift+click, multi-click,
alt+click)
- Hyperlinks (interaction and rendering)
- Accessibility (i.e. get selection, movement, text extraction,
selecting text)
- [ ] Prev/Next Command/Output (untested)
- Unit tests

## Follow-ups
- Refs #4423
- Now that selection and UIA are both exclusive ranges, it should be a
lot easier to deduplicate code between selection and UIA. We should be
able to remove `EndExclusive` as well when we do that. This'll also be
an opportunity to modernize that code and use more `til` classes.
