vim: Rewrite paste (#2878)

A complete overhaul of the way vim did paste. This ended up being more
involved than I expected because of the variety of different behaviors
that vim exhibits when copying/pasting between various modes.

Release Notes:

- vim: support P for paste before
([#1869](https://github.com/zed-industries/community/issues/1869)).
- vim: support P in visual modes for paste without overriding clipboard
- vim: fix position when using `p` on text copied outside zed
([#469](https://github.com/zed-industries/community/issues/469)).
- vim: fix indentation when using `p` on text copied from zed
([#1015](https://github.com/zed-industries/community/issues/1015)).
- all: Separate copied multi-selections by `\n`
```
