Description
Describe the bug
While searching in a file using / / ?, <ctrl>+<shift>+v pastes the clipboard content into the file and also performs basic search.
Works fine when <ctrl>+v is used.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Open a file
- Do a basic search by pasting pattern from clipboard using
<ctrl>+<shift>+v
Expected behavior
Behaviour should be same for both <ctrl>+<shift>+v and <ctrl>+v.

Version: 1.60.0 Commit: e7d7e9a9348e6a8cc8c03f877d39cb72e5dfb1ff - OS:

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in VSCodeVim v1.21.7 on the reported VSCode and Linux environment, using basic search and comparing ++v with +v. Trace the extension's handling of these shortcuts during / and ? searches; done means both shortcuts paste only the search pattern and do not paste into the file.
