Conhost expands UIA text ranges when moved. This means that degenerate
ranges become non-degenerate after movement, leading to odd behaviour
from UIA clients. This PR doesn't expand degenerate ranges, but rather
keeps them degenerate by moving _end to the newly-changed _start.

Tested in the NVDA Python console (cases with setEndPoint and
compareEndPoints described in #7342). Also ran the logic by
@michaelDCurran.

Closes #7342 and nvaccess/nvda#11288

Also fixes an issue privately reported to
me by @Simon818 with copy/paste from review cursor which originally lead
me to believe the issue was with moveEndPointByRange.

This test is failing:

Not too bad though. Just change this line to:

{4, 0+1}

Bonus points if you add a similar test to CanMoveByLine tests here:

This is merging to Windows today; it will be a couple weeks before it goes out to Insiders. 😄 Thanks again for the contribution.

I'll let you know when it's out.

Conhost expands UIA text ranges when moved. This means that degenerate
ranges become non-degenerate after movement, leading to odd behaviour
from UIA clients. This PR doesn't expand degenerate ranges, but rather
keeps them degenerate by moving `_end` to the newly-changed `_start`.

Tested in the NVDA Python console (cases with `setEndPoint` and
`compareEndPoints` described in #7342). Also ran the logic by
@michaelDCurran.

Closes #7342

Almost definitely addresses nvaccess/nvda#11288 (although I'll need to
test with my Braille display). Also fixes an issue privately reported to
me by @Simon818 with copy/paste from review cursor which originally lead
me to believe the issue was with `moveEndPointByRange`.
