Issue with output text selection

[AlexeiCrystal]

Describe the bug

I thought I saw a similar issue in github in ashellyou, but I can't find it now.

Perhaps the problem related to the fact that sometimes commands in the shell don't want to be highlighted is this: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37095917

The thing is in recycler view the content which is not visible in the screen doesn't exist. As we keep scrolling the new content gets created and existing ones gets removed. So we cannot select long list of items. This can be fixed by using ScrollView instead of recycler view but that will cause performance issues since there are commands with very very long output.

But I think a similar problem was fixed here without replacing RecycleView with ScrollView:

*I don't know if this will work as the 4.0.5 release has not been released yet
*UPD: In 4.0.5 fix works good

I will fix this in kotlin!

It has some serious drawbacks!

Implementing selectable text requires to keep whole text in memory (since command output can be very large, we cannot keep it in memory). When we use Lazy Column we get smooth ui no matter how long the output is, but the catch? The text which is offscreen gets removed from memory, so it cannot be copied! Also if we use Column which does keep text in memory, it lags and is unusable when output is large!

So output selection won't be implemented, untill there's some workaround fixed found!
