Don't error when transposing a single character (#45420)

This fixes an issue where an error would be thrown in the REPL if you tried to
transpose an input that was a single character while your cursor was to the
right of that character (e.g., "A|"). To fix this, let's move left once before
we check for if we're at the start of a line. This does change behavior slightly
in that the cursor can move left once without actually transposing anything, but
this seems to match what Emacs does with M-x transpose-chars in an equivalent
situation.
