ctrl+shift+space miscommunication with pivot

[Evolve]

0) you have 4 items
1) press ctrl+space on 1st item
2) press down arrow 3 times
3) press ctrl+shift+space

Expected behavior: 4th item stays selected
Actual behavior: it selects 2nd and 3rd items and deselects 4th

Fix comes.

Here is another bug:

0) you have 5 items, 3rd of which is selected
1) select the 1st one (ctrl+space)
2) go to the 5th one and press ctrl+shift+space

Expected: all the items 1 to 5 are selected
Actual: 3rd one gets reversed to unselected.

PS: same for both 23.20.0108 and 23.20.0109
-------
PPS: same for unselecting

0) All selected but 3rd
1) unselect 1st
2) go to 5th press ctrl+shift+space

Expected: All unselected
Actual: 3rd gets selected

---------------------
Though this might be actually how it should work. Maybe this is a bug in Explorer rather then in XY because this is the way lasso selection works in both of them: it reverses the selections.

----------------
Here are argument for mimicking Explorer way:
1) Explorer users will not be confused with different behavior
2) It's beneficial to have a way to select/unselect a sequence of items independently of their selection status

Emulating a black box is work. Coming closer...

There is one small mouse-related thing.
When you deselect a group of items with ctrl+LMB for the starting point and ctrl+shift+LMB for the end point, it refuses to deselect the last item.

Interestingly enough, this bug does not happen when you go from bottom to top.

PS. This goes far back in history. I checked a couple of old versions (14.50, 10.70) and it takes place in both. I should've probably created a separate bug issue...
---------
Also the bug does not happen (even if you go down) when you deselect not all of the items leaving some selected.

Thanks. I closed the black box for now. I'll open it again next winter.
