fix(tutor): recommend `e` instead of `w` for selecting word 

I was doing the tutorial to learn Helix, and it's more sensible to use
`e` than `w`.

If you're using `w`, you will need to add an extra space.
Example, assuming cursor is at |:

This sentence has incorrect words |behind it.

If you use `wc`, then you will get:
This sentence has incorrect words |it.

while `ec` will give you
This sentence has incorrect words | it.

Which enables you to drop removing and adding a space for no reason.
