Subject: [PATCH] fix(editor): keep slash menu alive on text input when
 no_result (#14141)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

**Problem**
Slash menu can be prematurely aborted when the query is still in
`no_result`
due to async query updates after deletion.

**Solution**
Keep the slash menu alive on text input while in `no_result`,
preventing aborts based on a stale query state.

**Repro**
1. Type `/eeee`
2. Delete to `/`
3. Type `h`
4. Slash menu should recover and show results

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **Bug Fixes**
* Enhanced slash-menu keyboard interaction: users can now continue
typing to refine queries when no results are displayed, instead of the
menu closing unexpectedly. Keyboard navigation and other controls remain
responsive.

<sub>✏️ Tip: You can customize this high-level summary in your review
