build(deps): bump @lexical/selection from 0.41.0 to 0.42.0

[dependabot]

Bumps @lexical/selection from 0.41.0 to 0.42.0.

Release notes

Sourced from @​lexical/selection's releases.

v0.42.0 is a monthly release with a huge number of fixes and features from a lot of new contributors. The most notable fixes are related to tables, links, extensions, and markdown. @lexical/eslint-plugin is now fully compatible with eslint 9+. The production builds are also now generated in an ascii-only format which may considerably reduce memory usage in some deployment environments.

Breaking Changes

Prism highlighting extracted from @lexical/code #8198

Prism highlighting now lives in @lexical/code-prism and the Prism related functionality in @lexical/code is now deprecated. Transitionally, there is a @lexical/code-core package which has the implementation of Lexical's code functionality without a Prism dependency.

Experimental hasFitNestedTables has been moved to the playground #8210

Due to its experimental nature and incomplete implementation, the in-progress hasFitNestedTables functionality has been moved to the playground

New APIs

lexical - $copyNode + LexicalNode.resetOnCopyNodeFrom & NodeState resetOnCopyNode

After $copyNode is used it now calls copiedNode.resetOnCopyNodeFrom(originalNode) which will reset every NodeState that has resetOnCopyNode: true in its configuration. Subclasses can override this method to reset other "ephemeral" state such as whether a ListNodeItem is checked or not.

Note that this does not influence serialization or copy and paste operations, it only affects calls to $copyNode.

@lexical/utils - $insertNodeIntoLeaf

The current behavior RangeSelection.insertNodes can split an inline ElementNode (e.g. a LinkNode) when inserting content, even if that content is also inline and could be a child of the given node. $insertNodeIntoLeaf is now provided to insert a node without splitting any containing nodes.

Highlights

Core:

• 🧹 #8190 Change EditorThemeClasses from type to interface
• ✅ #8218 Respect CSS scroll-padding in scrollIntoViewIfNeeded
• ✅ #8220 deleteWord now behaves the same as deleteCharacter when at the edge of an ElementNode
• 🆕 #8221 resetOnCopyNode configuration to NodeState and LexicalNode.resetOnCopyNodeFrom hook
• 🆕 #8219 LexicalEditor RootListener and EditableListener can return unregister callbacks
• ✅ #8222 Consecutive Linebreak insertion now preserves selection format

Code:

• ⚠️ #8198 Extract Prism highlighting code to @lexical/code-prism and add @lexical/code-core to provide a dependency that does not include Prism. @lexical/code remains backwards compatible with Prism included, but you should migrate to using highlighting from @lexical/code-shiki or @lexical/code-prism.

Devtools:

• ✅ #8230 Clean up strict mode useLexicalCommandsLog behavior

Extension:

• 🆕 #8202 LexicalExtensionEditorComposer, NestedEditorExtension, and fixed SharedHistoryExtension with playground refactor

Markdown:

• ✅ #8170 Enforce CommonMark flanking rules for trailing spaces
