Closes #22490 ## Summary • Keep kill-ring state as a dedicated global structure (`text`, `metadata`, `row`, `column`, `buffer_id`) instead of a raw clipboard wrapper. • Update `editor::KillRingCut` to append consecutive empty-line kills only when all are true: - one selection only - previous selection was empty - same row/column - same buffer • Preserve existing behavior for non-empty and multi-selection cuts by replacing the ring payload instead of appending. • Preserve yank metadata behavior through the existing clipboard selection metadata path. • Add regression coverage in `editor_tests::test_kill_ring_cut_accumulates_multi_line_kills`. ## Verification • `cargo fmt --all -- --check` • `./script/check-keymaps` • `./script/clippy -p editor` • `cargo test -p editor -- --nocapture` • `cargo test -p editor editor_tests::test_kill_ring_cut_accumulates_multi_line_kills -- --exact` • `cargo test -p editor test_cut_line_ends -- --exact` ## Manual • `Ctrl+K`, `Ctrl+K`, `Ctrl+Y` with repeated line-end kills at same caret location pastes concatenated text. • Non-empty selection cut and multi-selection still replace as before (no unintended append). • Cut in one buffer then cut in another does not cross-append. • Moving caret between kills does not append. • Undo/redo around cut+yank path works cleanly. Release Notes: - Fixed Emacs-style kill-ring behavior so successive `KillRingCut` operations at the same caret context are accumulated and pasted together via one `KillRingYank`, while preserving existing non-empty selection and multi-selection semantics. --------- Co-authored-by: Christopher Biscardi <chris@christopherbiscardi.com>
