Hi,

I'd like to propose a patchset that addresses some issues raised in
https://teddit.zaggy.nl/r/orgmode/comments/10b6ue6/orgmode_is_so_bad_at_rearranging_items_in_an/

1. When acting on region, promotion, demotion, and other structure
   editing commands immediately deactivate selection. It is annoying
   when one wants to promote several headings togetehr multiple times.

2. M-<up>/<down> on region does not care if there are headings inside
   region and simply treats region as plain text:

   * Heading 1
   text
   ** Sub
   * <mark>Heading 2
   * Heading 3<point>

   {M-<up>}

   * Heading 1
   text
   * Heading 2
   * Heading 3
   ** Sub

The patchset below addresses (2) by making org-metaup/org-metadown
aware of headings in region (when region starts at heading).

In addition, it alters M-<left>/M-<right>/M-<up>/M-<down> to not
deactivate active selection (Transient mark mode).  This way, one can
issue, say, M-<right> repeatedly without having to re-select
everything.

Similarly, bulk editing commands like setting schedule, deadline,
tags, and todo do not deactivate region.

I'd appreciate testing on edge cases and ideas for tests.
