Previously, when a block was selected and the user had highlighted text in the input editor, hitting Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-C copied the block content instead of the selected input text. Both selections can coexist, and the user almost always intends to copy the actively selected input. Update TerminalView::copy to check for selected input text right before falling back to copying selected blocks. Linear: APP-4330 Co-Authored-By: Oz <oz-agent@warp.dev>

Description
Fixes APP-4330: the global Copy keybinding (Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-C) was copying selected block content even when the user had text highlighted in the input editor.
You can have a block selected and text highlighted in the input editor at the same time. In that case, the user almost always intends to copy the actively-selected input text, not the block.
