New in v11.18.0 - ✨ Chat history can now be edited

[olimorris]

A feature that has cropped up in conversations over the last few months has been how a chat buffer's history can be edited. Because the chat buffer has been optimized to parse the last message from the user and not the whole buffer, this was not possible. Also, the messages that are displayed in the UI are more complicated than just role and content.

I am happy to announce that in v11.18.0, you can open up the debug window with gd, and edit both the settings (if they've not visually displayed in the chat buffer) and the message table. Whatever your keymaps are for sending a message or closing the chat buffer, apply to the debug window.

@olimorris I just tested it and worked perfectly!

I did the old "remember this special number trick"... it remembered it as usual... I then edited message to change the number... it then "remembered" and responded with the new changed number.... I then deleted that message with the number in it and it told me it does not know about any special number set in our conversation!

Nice work!
