[Accessibility]: Cannot select multiple lines in code view

User journey audit issue

https://github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph/issues/34448

Problem description

On desktop, you can select multiple lines by clicking on one line, holding shift and clicking on another line. It isn't clear what the equivalent of holding shift is on mobile. Holding + dragging doesn't seem to work.

Expected behavior

There should be some way to select multiple lines, perhaps pressing + dragging in the line number gutter.
