ctrl+drag selection change in behavior

[chinh...@gmail.com]

ctrl key + mouse drag will no longer copy and paste selected text but instead will deselect the text as soon as you click the mouse within the selection. Alt key + drag or Windows key + drag will still move the selected text. I only updated to Scintilla 5 in the past year in Windows and had been using Scintilla 3 until then so I don't know when the behavior changed. Is this a bug or is this change in behavior intentional? I can change the behavior back myself but I want to make sure I'm not breaking something else in the process.

This was intentional to allow removing a part of a multiple selection
with the same key as creating a multiple selection Ctrl+Click. It is
only performed when multiple selection is enabled.

An alternative is to start dragging then press Ctrl before dropping the text.
