// Multi-selection system
// - This system implements standard multi-selection idioms (CTRL+Mouse/Keyboard, SHIFT+Mouse/Keyboard, etc) in a way that
// allow a clipper to be used (so most non-visible items won't be submitted). Handling this correctly is tricky, this is why
// we provide the functionality. Note however that if you don't need SHIFT+Mouse/Keyboard range-select + clipping, you could use
// a simpler form of multi-selection yourself, by reacting to click/presses on Selectable() items and checking keyboard modifiers.
// The unusual complexity of this system is mostly caused by supporting SHIFT+Click/Arrow range-select with clipped elements.
// - In the spirit of Dear ImGui design, your code owns the selection data.
// So this is designed to handle all kind of selection data: e.g. instructive selection (store a bool inside each object),
// external array (store an array aside from your objects), hash/map/set (store only selected items in a hash/map/set),
// or other structures (store indices in an interval tree), etc.
// - TreeNode() and Selectable() are supported.
// - The work involved to deal with multi-selection differs whether you want to only submit visible items (and clip others) or submit all items
// regardless of their visibility. Clipping items is more efficient and will allow you to deal with large lists (1k~100k items) with near zero
// performance penalty, but requires a little more work on the code. If you only have a few hundreds elements in your possible selection set,
// you may as well not bother with clipping, as the cost should be negligible (as least on Dear ImGui side).
// If you are not sure, always start without clipping and you can work your way to the more optimized version afterwards.
