Fix range offsets in multi-selection paste (#4608)

* Fix range offsets in multi-selection paste

d6323b7 introduced a regression with
multi-selection paste where pasting would not adjust the ranges
correctly. To fix it, we need to track the total number of characters
inserted in each changed selection and use that offset to slide each
new range forwards.

* Inherit selection directions on paste

* Add an integration-test for multi-selection pasting
