Scintilla does different things when using SCI_WORDRIGHT, SCI_WORDLEFT,
SCI_WORDRIGHTEND and SCI_WORDLEFTEND than what we want for commands like
"w", "b", "W", "B", "e", "E", etc. For instance, for
ident1 = id|ent2+ident3;
where | represents the cursor, SCI_WORDRIGHT does
ident1 = ident2+|ident3;
while Vim's "w" does
ident1 = ident2|+ident3;
For this reason we have to reimplement all the word navigation by ourselves
to better emulate the behavior of Vim. This patch tries to do that.
Should fix #909
