    QTextEdit cursor position fix when moving left/right with selection

    When text has been selected in a QTextEdit and the left or right arrow
    key is pressed, the cursor moves one character beyond the start or end
    of the selection, when it shouldn't move past the selection. Fixed by
    moving the cursor to the right place when a selection is active.
