tdf#84806 Writer: drag and drop selected tables, don't empty

Drag and drop operation on a wholly selected table
resulted a copy of the original table, keeping also the
original one without its text content, ie. emptying it.

Now drag and drop works as intended: moving the table
instead of copying and emptying (like also MSO does).

See also commit 144bdd189d07faef0f71edbd039359665a45876c
"tdf#118311 Writer: cut selected table, not only its text content".

(tdf#118311 Writer: cut selected table, not only its text content

like MSO does. For example, if the text cursor in the table, press
Ctrl-A (Select All) twice (or if the cell is empty, once), and
Ctrl-X (Cut) to cut the table.

Note: This speeds up table moving and deletion significantly,
because there were only the following nonintuitive and uncomfortable
methods to cut and insert the table:

1) inserting an empty line before the table, and selecting that, too,
   Ctrl-X, Ctrl-V (Paste) and deleting the empty line after table
   insertion. Unfortunately, this doesn't work in the case of nested
   tables.

2) or selecting only the table, Ctrl-C (Copy), Table->Delete->Table
   and Ctrl-V.

Note: It's still possible to cut only the selected text content
using Copy and Delete.
