Bug Description

Deleting an image via selection (instead of the trash button) prevents further typing until you hit "Enter" or click on the line. This occurs in both the AppFlowy app and the AppFlowy Editor example component.

How to Reproduce

Type /image to create an image.
Enter in an invalid image URL, e.g. "invalid"
Click on the image element, which should say "Could not load image". A blue selection box should appear around the component.
Hit Backspace to delete the image element.
Try typing. At most a single character will appear, and no further characters will show up.

Expected Behavior

Deleting an (invalid) image does not result in a bad internal editor state.

Operating System

macOS 12

AppFlowy Version(s)

0.0.8.1.1

Screenshots

No response

Additional Context

Below is the exception I receive when running the AppFlowy Editor example.

The following StateError was thrown during method call TextInputClient.updateEditingStateWithDeltas:
Bad state: No element

call:
  MethodCall(TextInputClient.updateEditingStateWithDeltas, [12, {deltas: [{oldText:
  , deltaText: s, deltaStart: 1, deltaEnd: 1, selectionBase: 2, selectionExtent: 2, composingBase:
  null, composingExtent: null}]}])
