Change the behavior of 'S' to diff with the previous selection set #2848

Instead of S{regex}<ret> → s{regex}<ret>S. It could make the split feature better composable.

I like this because I'm having a hell of a time trying to remember which key (s/S) does which.

Though even with this, shouldn't it be <a-s> because it doesn't extend but rather cuts down? Gets confusing. Maybe C should do what <a-s> does , to keep it consistent. C does nothing with multiline selection now, as far as I can tell.
