Search addon: Introduce a new selection type so that multiple ranges can be highlighted at once

[Tyriar]

This would allow showing all matches of a search in the viewport and also not hijacking the regular selection.

Plan issue: #705

This is blocked on #1852

[roguexiaohuihui]

Are there any immediate plans to address this feature？

[Tyriar]

@roguexiaohuihui no, #1852 needs to be tackled first as well.

Hi @Tyriar , any update for this issue? Seems the #1852 has been closed.

@dpdpbj it's on the plan for VS Code this month, we're looking at decorations in the scroll bar first though (microsoft/vscode#144595)
