Enter selected text into Scribe

Description

These are changes to the behaviour of the Scribe key when text in the text field is selected. Currently, it only shows you annotations for the selected word (i.e. "N" for neuter words). Here, I changed it so the highlighted text is entered into the Scribe command's text field once it is selected.

Before

After

I'm also considering an option where the selected command automatically uses the selected word and shows the result right away.

A few things to consider here, @Jag-Marcel:

• What happens if the word isn't the last one in the proxy?
  • Do we replace the word where the other one is
• We also need to make sure that we're not including a space at the end of such commands that might cause an inadvertent double space for the user
  • Maybe we can check to see if there is a space after the word already so that we only add a space if there isn't one already 🤔

This is amazing! Thank you! 🚀

Talking about it in the sync: The general thinking is that the command should be directly ran :)

This is ready for a file review at this point, right @Jag-Marcel? :)

Not yet, I still haven't changed the behaviour with the commands

Ready to review now, @andrewtavis! I also edited the description of the PR to match.

Fantastic, @Jag-Marcel! Will get to this soon :) Working on getting emojis for the English keyboard via implementing it in Scribe-Data, and then the translations :)
