Commit e5b34d5cd (Suppress autosuggesting during backspacing like browsers do,
2012-02-06) disabled autosuggestion when backspacing. Autosuggestions are
re-enabled whenever we insert anything in the command line. Undo uses a
different code path to insert into the command line, which does not re-enable
autosuggestion.
Fix that.
Also re-enable autosuggestion when undo erases from the command line.
This seems like the simplest approach. It's not clear if there's a better
behavior; browsers don't agree on one in any case.
Currently, if you enter `echo` and press up-arrow, it might select
e.g. `echo foo`.
You can then enter text, making it `echo foobar` and press up-arrow
again, but the search string is *still* `echo`.
Many *other* input functions will end history search, including e.g.
expand-abbr, so pressing space by default will already end it.
So this ends the history search once you input something.
Incidentally this allows suggestions to work in this case, so it
Fixes#10287
Note that autosuggestions have been disabled while history search is
active since a08450bcb6050cc630d87ae6d7d5f203f8eeca62, I'm not sure
it's actually *needed*, so it would also be possible to enable it in
that case.
But since this is already awkward (history search is *active* but with
the old search string) and I'm not sure if e.g. suggestions during
history search would be too busy, let's do this first.
Commit 5f849d0 changed control-C to print an inverted ^C and then a newline.

This sounds like a valid use case in some scenarios but I think that most
abandoned commands are noise. After all, the user erased them. Also, now that
we have undo that can be used to get back a limited set of canceled commands.
I believe the original motivation for existing behavior (in other shells) was
that TERM=dumb does not support erasing characters. Similarly, other shells
like to leave behind other artifacts, for example when using tab-completion
or in their interactive menus but we generally don't.
Control-C is the obvious way to quickly clear a multi-line commandline.
IPython does the same. For the other behavior we have Alt-# although that's
probably not very well-known.
Restore the old Control-C behavior of simply clearing the command line.
Our unused __fish_cancel_commandline still prints the ^C. For folks who
have explicitly bound ^C to that, it's probably better to keep the existing
behavior, so let's leave this one.
Previous attempt at #4713 fizzled.
Closes#10213
