Currently, when pasting character-wise, the selection is kept at the beginning. In VIM, the behavior is placing the cursor at the end of the pasted content.

Example of current behavior:
d_o_g - Denotes the cursor is under the letter "o" in "dog".
d>og< - Denotes the selection is "og" in "dog".

>something< - Let's yank(y) this selection "something".
_s_omething - Place the cursor over "s"

Put(p) in Sublime result:
s_s_omethingomething

Put(p) in VIM result:
ssomethin_g_omething

This minor change fixes Sublime's character-wise put to behave like VIM's.
