36b6444f34 Remove tab key handling in markdown editor, add toolbar buttons instead, re ()
We haven't decided much (to my knowledge), and I've been using the main branch in production (as one does) and found out even I myself rely on Tab sometimes working to move focus and have been caught off guard by it indenting lines instead.

So this removes Tab handling and instead adds two new buttons to the toolbar. The indentation logic is unchanged (other than now focusing the textarea during button handling, to ensure execCommand works, and thus undo history is preserved).

I'm not sure which terminology to use in tooltips. Could also add keyboard shortcuts for the whole toolbar eventually, but as is this is hopefully an better solution to the problems I previously created than un-merging the whole thing :)

221ca0c404 Implement tab indentation and list continuation in the new editor (, ) ()
This overrides handling of Tab and Enter keys in the ComboMarkdownEditor, so that:

* Pressing Tab prepending 4 spaces to the line under cursor, or all the lines in the selection.
* Pressing Shift+Tab removes up to 4 spaces.
* Pressing Enter repeats any indentation and a "repeatable" prefix (list or blockquote) from the current line.

Since Tab "capture" can interfere with keyboard navigation, it's only done if there was any previous input in the textarea or if it was selected with a pointer. Additionally, presing Esc will make the textarea lose focus, resuming tab navigation. This seems adequate to me, but I might be wrong.

Had to use the "deprecated" execCommand method, since anything else I tried messes up the undo history. There's a fallback for when (if?) it's actually removed.

Only tested in desktop Firefox and Chrome so far.
