Request: Don't clear text selection when foregrounding Hyper windows #8091

Description

@mcandre

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I often highlight part of my terminal screen, temporarily switch to a different terminal window or even another application, then switch back. But every time I do this, Hyper forcibly removes the text selection highlight. Other emulators like Terminal.app don't do this.

Describe the solution you'd like

Please provide a boolean option that controls whether to reset text selection when a click event is the action that foregrounds a formerly background Hyper window.

Ideally default the option to not reset the text selection, but I care more about having the option, and documenting the option in the default config, than what we decide the default behavior to be.
