//! Vim-style register bank.
//!
//! Slots:
//! - `"` (unnamed) — written by every `y` / `d` / `c` / `x`; the
//!   default source for `p` / `P`.
//! - `"0` — the most recent **yank** (only when no register was
//!   named). Deletes do not touch it, so `yw…dw…p` still pastes the
//!   original yank.
//! - `"1`–`"9` — numbered delete/change ring. A delete of a whole
//!   line or spanning more than one line shifts the ring (newest at
//!   `"1`, oldest dropped off `"9`). Deletes of less than one line
//!   do **not** touch the ring — they go to `"-` instead.
//! - `"-` — small-delete register: text from a delete/change of less
//!   than one line (unless the command named another register).
//! - `"a`–`"z` — named slots. A capital letter (`"A`…) appends to
//!   the matching lowercase slot, matching vim semantics.
