[orca-list] Reworked presentation of native word navigation



Hey all.

I just landed a change in Orca master which is designed to improve what
Orca says when you use native app navigation by word. In other words,
when you press Ctrl+Left/Right *and* Orca is not controlling the caret.
So that means Gedit/Pluma, Firefox and Chromium in focus mode, etc. The
changes should not impact browse mode nor LibreOffice.

The problem I was/am trying to address is what happens when you're
navigating by word around punctuation and other symbols. In those
instances, where the app moves you when you press Ctrl+Left/Right
doesn't match what ATK/AT-SPI2 reports for the word at your new
location. This mismatch can cause Orca to repeat some parts of the
"word" or not speak other parts. Hopefully that's better now in Orca
master.

Please give it a spin and let me know what you think.

Thanks!
