Add option to follow HEAD when bisecting #1438

Description

Right now, when we mark commit as good or bad, and HEAD is updated, selection stays on the same commit that was selected before. And it makes sense in some cases, as when someone has something selected and selection would jump somewhere else, finding exact commit is harder to do than clicking 'bisect' branch to jump to HEAD, but I think for the most use cases jumping along makes more sense.
Maybe to allow both, checkbox to 'Follow HEAD' could be introduced?

I'd like to try to implement it myself, in fact I already tried to implement following the HEAD, then realised there could be use cases where we don't want to change selection, but as I know next to nothing about C# and Avalonia it's taking a long time 😀 The best I could achieve until now was to follow previous HEAD, can't find the place where it's already past the update. But surely throwing more breakpoints in the code will lead me there eventually 😀 Though I wouldn't mind some tips too 😉
