Description

@sellensr

Select text in Serial monitor pane and you can cut/paste with Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V, but Ctrl-A jumps to the code pane and selects all code.

To Reproduce
Open Serial Monitor
Select some output to be sure that pane has focus
Ctrl-A (Cmd-A on Mac) and all code will highlight yellow and focus will shift to code pane.
Ctrl-C (Cmd-C on Mac) then copies the code, not the Serial Monitor content.

Expected behavior
Expected all content in Serial Monitor to be selected and highlighted for copying

Desktop (please complete the following information):
IDE 2.0.0-sc5 and sc4
Mac OS 12.2.1 (Mac Mini M1)
also verified same behaviour on Windows 10 with IDE sc5

Additional context
Ctrl-A is a valuable feature for students grabbing large collections of output measurement data in my engineering courses.
