I see that S-left and S-right arrows work on text terminals
via 'this-command-keys-shift-translated', but S-RET
doesn't set 'this-command-keys-shift-translated'.

Then isearch-exit could support a prefix argument to
activate the region on exit like Gregory proposed in
https://debbugs.gnu.org/47599#34
with three values of prefix arguments to isearch-exit:
C-u  RET moves point to the other end,
C-u C-u RET activates region around match,
C-u C-u C-u RET moves point to the other end
                and activate region around match.
But then Ergus proposed M-RET or M-s RET.
