This PR introduces two new commands:
pipe-append
Takes selected text and pipes it to a shell command.
Appends the shell command's output on a new line immediately after the selected text.
pipe-inline-append
Works similarly but inserts the shell command's output directly at the cursor position, rather than on a new line.
Intent of this is to add flexibility in using shell commands for text completion and insertion.
For example using shell commands to complete code/text.
