terminal: add semi-colon character to word boundary list for easier selection (#9069)
Sorry, I'm living dangerously here and haven't started a discussion.
New ghostty user. When working interactively with SQL clients you're
often writing semi-colons at the end of statements, e.g. `select * from
table;`
It's super annoying when you double-click to select the word `table` it
actually selects `table;` Anecdotally, this behaviour disagrees with
other terminals I've tried (tho not exhaustive).
Disclosure: Claude wrote this code but, ironically, I "assisted it" by
pointing to the file and function after uncovering issue #30 and
relevant PR.
