Handle user input without selected code for slash commands
What does this MR do and why?
This MR alters the behaviour when using slash commands in Duo Chat within the VS code extension. Previously, when a user didn't select any code and entered their own input, the response would sometimes mention that no code was selected.
Now, the chat responds directly to the input without referencing the code selection.
