Bug Description
Steps to reproduce:
1. Have Ubuntu MATE 21.04 installed (or use Live session)
2. Launch MATE Terminal
3. Enable infinite history (Edit - Profile Preferences - Scrolling, Scrollback - Unlimited)
4. Execute command with long output such as `journalctl | cat`
5. Select Edit - Select All (or press <Shift>
6. Open Pluma text editor and paste just copied terminal output
Expected results:
* whole terminal output is copied - staring by `user@host:~$ journalctl | cat` and ending by `user@host:~$`
Actual results:
* only last 15 lines were copied (depends on terminal size)
