Breaking Changes and Notices

Changed the default base_keymap from VSCode to Zed. The VSCode base keymap is now a separate overlay that more closely matches VS Code's own keybindings, so anyone with base_keymap explicitly set to VSCode will see some bindings change, including the inline assistant moving to cmd-i (macOS) and ctrl-i (Linux/Windows), and f5 starting the debugger. (#61532) Reverted recent changes to word navigation around punctuation because they caused regressions when navigating across structural punctuation such as brackets, quotes, and delimiters. (#62213)
