Cursor usability issue in Devanagari script #3

Description

@OBrutus

Describe the bug
The movement and alignment of cursor is expected when used, within Roman script, but as soon as we switch to the Devanagari script most of the characters spaces are unequal (example: दुर्गम and Durgam). The word length in Devanagari script is less when it comes to Roman. This leads to an extra blank spaces which comes within picture and unable to remove any of the character in between the lines.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to https://vedic-lang.github.io/vedic-ide/
  2. Type your code within Devanagari script
  3. Move your cursor, probably take in towards non-extreme ends of line
  4. Try to edit the text in between
  5. Notice inconsistency of letters the cursor is on and removed letters

Expected behavior
The letters prior to cursor should be removed, and post removal cursor should face letter prior to deleted letter if any, else should move towards upper line considering the removal of "new line (\n)"

यह एक बहुत ही उत्तम शुरुवात है। मुझे यह initiative पसंद आया। में बहुत भाग्यशाली हूँ कि मैं इस संगम को witness कर रहा हूँ। मेरे ढेरों सुभकामनाये की यह प्रोजेक्ट इस दूरी तक पहुँचा है और में इंतज़ार नहीं कर सकता की यह प्रोजेक्ट और कितनी क्षमता रख सकता है यह देखने के लिए। अंत में यही कहना चाहूँगा कि हिन्दी व देवनागरी लिपि इस समय इतनी सरल नहीं रही जान मानव के बीच में अतः यहाँ बहुत ही अच्छा प्रयास है इसे पुनः उपचार में लाने का।
