Description

Inline links, mentions, and hashtags should all properly be handled when pasting content. This will require some tricky cursor handling.

This requires a bit of rewriting to the pasting logic. It instead should collect the inline mentions for example via the internal regexp for doing so, send them to the server async, try to find a matching user, and if a match is found respond with the matches insert shortcode and then in the javascript just auto insert it.. this should no longer open the mentions popup at all for pasted mentions. Do the same for hashtags (exact match only otherwise create new hashtag) and links.

Mentions inline pasting substantially improved. It no longer bothers opening a mentions window and will just auto mention on paste.
