Description

Describe the bug

Once you remove a code chunk the horizontal lines delimiting it stay.

Then I remove the # %% line:

Then I remove everything:

Also, can you add an option to completely remove those lines? They are quite invasive, specially the thick one above. Moreover, even when the cursor is not inside a chunk, the last selected one keeps being surrounded by those lines, which is very misleading.

To Reproduce

I think it's clear from the description above.

Can you fix this issue by yourself? (We appreciate the help)

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in a VS Code R file by removing a chunk, its # %% line, and then all content. Start by tracing the vscode-R logic that draws chunk boundary and selection lines; verify that decorations disappear when chunks are removed or the cursor leaves them, and that any setting for disabling the lines works.
