Many people have mentioned wanting support for changing / yanking /
deleting between "" and '', meaning the commands `ci' ci" yi' yi" di' di"`,
so this adds that support in a generic, and thus potentially confusing way.
The concept is that we check for the character backwards and forwards
before making the selection.  Unfortunately, this will also work for *any*
character that isn't `w` or `W`, so `cia` could change everything between
two `a` characters.
Looking through the [bind documentation](https://fishshell.com/docs/current/cmds/bind.html)
and input handler at `src/input.cpp`,
this is the best possible solution I could come up with until
`forward-jump` and `backward-jump` can accept input in the call to `bind`,
and not just from stdin, meaning we can write a binding as:
```
bind di\" backward-jump-till \" and repeat-jump-reverse ...`
```
If that were done, then other commands such as `di)` to go between `()` would
be possible.
There are also some added `y` bindings not part of #6648.
Let me know if you need anything else.
