Calling `ivy-done` or `ivy-alt-done` on a selected prompt forwards to `ivy-immediate-done`, thus exiting with the current user input instead of the selected candidate.

Thanks for your response, I made a follow-up PR #1063 which should fix this. |

This is an attempt to make selecting a custom input more intuitive by letting the user select the prompt line, as suggested by @Stebalien in #933 (comment).
Calling
ivy-done(C-m) orivy-alt-done(C-j) on a selected prompt exits with the current user input and is thus equivalent to callingivy-immediate-done(C-M-j) when any candidate is selected. Therefore, rememberingC-M-jis not necessary anymore. If no candidate matches the current input, the prompt line is selected automatically, as this is the only option left for the user.To activate this behaviour, set the new variable
ivy-use-selectable-prompttot. Note that selecting the prompt line is not possible ifivy-readis called with predicate:require-matchset tot, since a custom input is not allowed in this case. Customize faceivy-prompt-matchto adjust the look of the selected prompt if you want it to differ from a selected candidate.
