Prevent scrolling to bottom when selecting files

cc #1193

When selecting a file using either the mouse or the select command, the cursor scrolls to the bottom as a result of calling the dir.sel function.

I don't think it's a good idea to change how the scrolling works for dir.sel - it's useful for forcibly setting the position of the cursor (to the bottom) without taking into account of it's original position (this prevents the cursor from ending up out of bounds if the number of files changes, e.g. by applying a filter). Instead, the code for selecting a file is changed to use nav.move to achieve smoother scrolling similar to #1196.

@joelim-work Looks good, thanks for the patch.

is this the fix where selecting any file(using spacebar) causes the cursor to move down?

@ryouiki-tenkai No, this is about the cursor jumping down to the bottom of the screen when using the select command or mouse click to focus on a file.

The select using spacebar you're referring to is the toggle command, which is different. By default, the spacebar is mapped to toggle the file, and in addition move the cursor down for convenience. If you want spacebar to just toggle the file then you can add map <space> toggle to your config file.
