Terminal: Copy on selection + new highlight in 1.68 copies previous term on CMD+F

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes/No

• VS Code Version: 1.68.0 (this issue didn’t exist on 1.67.2)
• OS Version: macOS Monterey 12.3.1

Steps to Reproduce:

1. In settings.json enable: "terminal.integrated.copyOnSelection": true,
2. Open integrated terminal
3. Search for some term that exists in the terminal (that will be highlighted/selected)
4. Focus on editor and type + copy some chunk of text
5. Focus on terminal, press CMD+F and paste what you just copied

Expected:

The pasted term is the term you just copied

Actual:

The pasted term is the term you last searched for (in step 3).

Why this happens?

Because:

1. When you press CMD+F in terminal, the terminal has pre-existing term typed in the search box (from your first search)
2. Terminal uses this term to highlight all occurrences of such term in the terminal
3. Highlighting the terms makes the terminal also copy this term to clipboard due to "terminal.integrated.copyOnSelection": true,

My two cents is that even when find is explicitly triggered, a found selection’s text should not be copied to the clipboard–maybe that’s an easier fix?
