When using option + arrow keys (Mac) or ctrl + arrow keys (Windows), you navigate a full word. Previously egui would ignore `.` in the text, so that `www.example.com` would be considered a full word. This is inconsistent with how the rest of macOS works. With this PR, cursor navigation in `www.example.com` will move the cursor between the dots. This makes editing code with egui a lot nicer.
