`editor::SelectToBeginningOfLine` behaves differently than `editor::MoveToBeginningOfLine` #16340

Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

The behavior of editor::MoveToBeginningOfLine puts the cursor at the begining of non-whitespace characters in the line. This is handy because most of the time you do not wish to include indents in this operation. The editor::SelectToBeginningOfLine does not mirror this behavior. Instead it actually selects to the begining of line. This is inconvenient because it requires more keystrokes to de-select the indentation. I'm not sure if this is by design but it seems like they should behave similarly.

You can control that behaviour with stop_at_soft_wraps:

"ctrl-shift-a": ["editor::SelectToBeginningOfLine", { "stop_at_soft_wraps": true }]

@neunato Thanks for posting that config. That definitely fixes my issue. :1st_place_medal:
