Describe the feature

Similar to, but not the same as, #5179

VSCode and Neovide have the option to animate the cursor motion.

I don't know if I'd use this feature myself, but it looks great in demos and seems like a fun way to flex Zed's performance.

This is likely more useful when Vim mode is more fleshed out because it makes following the cursor easier for people newer to modal editing.

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help present your vision of the feature

Neovide does it beautifully.
