Closes #425
With this PR, we more aggressively use the "remembered"
language. We now just straight up insert thatlanguagein the code cell rather than just putting it 1st in the order of potential languages to use. This allows us to put the user's cursor directly into the code cell when they hit the keyboard shortcut.Note this does not apply to Visual Editor, which I guess uses a very different path.

The downside of this approach is that it isn't easily possible to get the list of potential languages to pop back up if you need to switch languages. They are basically hard coded in this one code path that now corresponds to "we don't know what language you want, so please pick one".
There do seem to be some completions that pop up inside the
{}(see the video), so in a separate PR maybe we can hook into that completion engine to get the list of language names to pop back up?
