Describe the bug

When Copilot is doing ask_question and I'm providing an answer, if I type Ctrl+E then some text above the question becomes expanded. I would have expected Ctrl+E to move to the end of the line, as it normally does.

Affected version

GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.11.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Precondition: there are some large outputs earlier in the session.
Prompt copilot: ask me what my favourite colour is?
Start typing an answer.
Use Ctrl+A to move cursor to the start of the line: works.
Use Ctrl+E to move cursor to the end of the line: fails: it expands the large outputs

Expected behavior

I expect the cursor to move to the end of the line

Additional context

Windows, terminal shell, copilot started from cmd.exe
