Xin Zhao adfcb45abe vim: Fix incorrect bracket matching for symmetric quotes in cs operator (#52321)
## Context

Closes #46698

This PR fixes a bug where the `cs` (change surrounds) operator fails on
symmetric delimiters like quotes.

In a sequence like `c s ' "`, Zed previously performed two independent
searches. For a line like `I'm 'goˇod'`, the first step (`cs'`)
correctly moves the cursor to the second quote: `I'm ˇ'good'`. However,
when the replacement character `"` is pressed, `change_surrounds` would
perform another scan from the new cursor position. Because quotes are
symmetric, this second search would incorrectly match `'m '` as the
target pair, leading to a broken result like `I"m "good'`.

I've refactored the workflow to ensure the search happens only once.
`prepare_and_move_to_valid_bracket_pair` now computes and stores the
`Anchor` positions of the detected pair directly into the operator
state. `change_surrounds` then simply reuses these anchors instead of
re-executing the search. This ensures correctness for quotes while
remaining consistent with Vim/Neovim cursor behavior. While this
slightly increases coupling between these two functions, it is an
intentional trade-off since they exclusively serve the `cs` operation.

## How to Review

The main changes are in `crates/vim/src/surrounds.rs`. I renamed
`check_and_move_to_valid_bracket_pair` to
`prepare_and_move_to_valid_bracket_pair` and updated it to return the
detected bracket anchors. In `change_surrounds`, I removed the redundant
search logic and updated it to perform the replacement using the
provided anchors. You can also see the updated
`Operator::ChangeSurrounds` enum variant in `crates/vim/src/state.rs`
which now carries the anchor data.

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.
