Autocompete arguments behavior doesn't override suggested name

[bit-garden]

Summary

Per https://helix-editor.com/news/release-25-01-highlights/

Pressing enter, then typing should override the suggested text.

This doesn't happen when the suggestion only has 1 argument. The argument is highlighted but typing just kind of puts the new text somewhere in the middle of the variables text.

[enter then type something]

This is a fresh dart project. The device is slow so I had to wait a bit for the lsp to finish loading.

dart create helixtest
cd helixtest

What version of dart are you using? I couldn't reproduce with 3.6.0. Could you also include a log file? (hx -v --log log.txt and attach log.txt)

Ah ok I'm pretty sure I see the issue. The snippet for print for example is print(${0:object}) and we previously assumed that the zero tabstop can't have placeholder text ("object" in this case). This should be fixed on master in #12647
