Pressing Escape in Vim NORMAL mode now properly resets the command state to idle, fixing cases where partial command sequences could leave the input in an unexpected state.
Evidence
New condition if (M.escape && W.mode === "NORMAL") resets to { mode: "NORMAL", command: { type: "idle" } } (search for "NORMAL" in the Vim handler)
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
