Terminals which support the enhanced keyboard protocol send events for
keys pressed with the Super modifier (Windows/Linux key or the Command
key). The only changes that are needed to support this in Helix are:
* Mapping the modifier from crossterm's KeyModifiers to Helix's
KeyModifiers.
* Representing and parsing the modifier from the KeyEvent text
representation.
* Documenting the ability to remap it.
When writing keybindings, use 'Meta-', 'Cmd-' or 'Win-' which are all
synonymous. For example:
[keys.normal]
Cmd-s = ":write"
will trigger for the Windows or Linux keys and the Command key plus 's'.
Media keys are sent despite `DISAMBIGUATE_ESCAPE_CODES` being unset.
Previously we panicked on these. This change translates the
disambiguated keys from crossterm so that they do not cause a panic.
Ported over from 61365dfbf3 in the `gui` branch. This will allow
adding our own events, most notably an idle timer event (useful
for adding debounced input in [dynamic pickers][1] used by interactive
global search and workspace symbols).

The command palette previously used + as a delimiter for denoting
a single key in a key sequence, (like C+w). This was at odds with
how the statusline displayed them with pending keys (like <C-w>).
This patch changes the palette formatting to the statusline formatting
* Macros WIP
`helix_term::compositor::Callback` changed to take a `&mut Context` as
a parameter for use by `play_macro`
* Default to `@` register for macros
* Import `KeyEvent`
* Special-case shift-tab -> backtab in `KeyEvent` conversion
* Move key recording to the compositor
* Add comment
* Add persistent display of macro recording status
When macro recording is active, the pending keys display will be shifted
3 characters left, and the register being recorded to will be displayed
between brackets — e.g., `[@]` — right of the pending keys display.
* Fix/add documentation
* Use tree like structure to store keymaps
* Allow multi key keymaps in config file
* Allow multi key keymaps in insert mode
* Make keymap state self contained
* Add keymap! macro for ergonomic declaration
* Add descriptions for editor commands
* Allow keymap! to take multiple keys
* Restore infobox display
* Fix keymap merging and add infobox titles
* Fix and add tests for keymaps
* Clean up comments and apply suggestions
* Allow trailing commas in keymap!
* Remove mode suffixes from keymaps
* Preserve order of keys when showing infobox
* Make command descriptions smaller
* Strip infobox title prefix from items
* Strip infobox title prefix from items
* reverse the dependency between helix-tui and helix-view by moving a fiew types to view
* fix tests
* clippy and format fixes
