Description of the new feature/enhancement

Currently, Ctrl+A will select the entire command/text input, however, triple clicking (mouse version of Select All selects the entire line (including the prompt). GIF shows selecting with mouse vs with keyboard:

terminal

I can't think of many (any?) situations where I'd want to include the prompt when selecting or copying a line.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

I would like the triple click action to align to the Ctrl+A selection method. Thanks!
