Description
This PR adds support for word-wise cursor navigation using Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right in linenoise.
Ctrl+Left: move cursor one word to the left
Ctrl+Right: move cursor one word to the right
Implementation details
Introduced linenoiseEditMoveWordLeft() and linenoiseEditMoveWordRight()
Escape sequences ESC [ 1 ; 5 D and ESC [ 1 ; 5 C are now mapped to the new commands
Word boundaries are detected using whitespace as delimiters
Notes
