DinoandYara 2d86e3b30b search: Fixed highlighting item beyond cursor (#54514)
Search is highly generic, editor is the only implementation that has a
concept of a cursor. When the cursor moves eventually
`Editor::selections_did_change` runs which among a bunch of things
triggers the `SearchEvent::ActiveMatchChanged`. This was handled by the
`BufferSearchBar` by moving the currently highlighted item.

When going to the next search result (from the cursor position) we call
`BufferSearchBar::match_index_for_direction`. It relied on the
current_index being updated during the handling of `ActiveMatchChanged`
which we removed. It now instead figures out the next/prev search result
from the users cursor in the buffer directly.

The `SearchEvent::ActiveMatchChanged` was being used for different
responsibilities in different places in the codebase where it was
emmited, namely:

* On the `editor::Editor::selections_did_change` it was being emmited in
  case a single selection (single cursor) existed, and this was the
  thing reponsible for indirectly updating the active match as soon as
  the cursor moved out of match.
* On the `terminal` side, it's being emitted when the user clicks on the
  terminal, to "simulate" what the cursor position would be and update
  the active match to the next closes match compared to the click
  position.
* On the `markdown_preview` side it was being emmited whenever the
  active match was updated but, from testing, it does actually seem to
  not drive anything and is unnecessary?

Given that we no longer want to update the active match in the buffer
everytime the user moves the cursor, we removed the event emission from
`editor::Editor::selections_did_change` as well as removing the one from
`markdown_preview`, as it seems it doesn't have any noticeable impact.

Licensing

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
