Improves GitHawkApp/GitHawk#1514
I did a little reverse engineering of Slack to figure out how they were dealing with this. The text after a mention is still highlighted for autocorrect, so they do not toggle it on and off, they simply ignore the replacement.
This only automatically removes an autocorrect for a single backspace starting at the end.
This is a bit of a heuristic. It works well because a suggested autocorrect is rarely if ever 1 character long.
Existing problems that this does not fix:
autocomplete
from the middle(Slack handles this by changing the text but removing the autocomplete attributes)
