Description

Coming from atom this is a feature that i miss.

When wrapping with abbreviation you could use the up and down arrows to go through previously used abbreviations.

So if you had created a long abbreviation and it was slightly wrong or you wanted to reuse you wouldn't have to type it out all over again.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the Emmet abbreviation wrapping code in VS Code's source, find the input handler for the abbreviation box, and implement a history list that can be navigated with arrow keys.
