Maliit shouldn't ever by default delete what the user typed without asking

See here:

KDE.Save.File.Dialog.webm

It just feels hostile and bad to use. I'm assuming this is somehow related to some spell check, but neither did I ever enable that (but fair, I guess some people want it) nor did I ask it to delete what I just typed which in my opinion should be an explicit action. I just ignored it and typed, and it proceeded to delete. That's so frustrating. 😔

Affected maliit version: 2.3.1-r1

Affected on desktop: KDE Plasma 6.1

Affected linux distribution: postmarketOS Edge

Text prediction removed in #146, currently waiting for new maliit release

Sadly this mode is also activated when editing code in gedit, where if it doesn't downright delete code, it seems to also enjoy messing with the indent (which is in some ways more insidious since it can be easier to miss than a deleted part) and generally seems very confused. Did a way to disable this make it into a release by any chance?
