Add a mouseSelectionMode property to TextEdit and TextInput.

Adds an option to do per word selection when selectByMouse is true.
Also changes the selection behavior so that the first word selected
remains selected when the direction of the selection changes which
is more consistent with other implementations including the existing
per word selection in QTextEdit.
