Conrad Irwin 9da040da3f Stop using alt- shortcuts (#20378)
Closes #7688

Release Notes:

- (breaking change) Stop binding keyboard shortcuts to alt-[a-z]. These
get in the way of typing characters. This is usually not an issue for
English speakers because we don't use many characters; but for other
Latin-based languages with diacritics our shortcuts prevent them typing
what they need to type.

This primarily affects Zed's extra features:
* `alt-q` => `cmd-k q` on maOS, `ctrl-k q` on Linux for `editor::Rewrap`
* `alt-z` => `cmd-k z` on macOS `ctrl-k z` on Linux for
`editor::ToggleSoftWrap`
  * `alt-m` => `ctrl-shift-m` for `assistant::ToggleModelSelector`
* `alt-v` => `ctrl-shift-v` for `["editor::MovePageUp", {
"center_cursor": true }]` (macOS only)
* `alt-t` => `cmd-shift-r` on maOS, `ctrl-shift-r` on Linux for
`task::Spawn` (The previous binding for `editor::RevealInFileManager`
now only applies in the project panel)
* `alt-shift-t` => `alt-cmd-r` on maOS, `ctrl-alt-r` on Linux for
`task::Rerun`
* `alt-shift-f` => `ctrl-shift-f` for
`project_panel::SearchInDirectory`.
 
But also overrides some bindings from Readline.
  * `alt-h` => `alt-backspace` for `editor::DeleteToPreviousWordStart`
  * `alt-d` => `alt-delete` for `editor::DeleteToNextWordEnd`
* `alt-f` => `ctrl-f` for `editor:: MoveToNextWordEnd` (`ctrl-f` was
previously `editor::MoveRight`)
* `alt-b` => `ctrl-b` for `editor::MoveToNextWordStart` (`ctrl-b` was
previously `editor::MoveLeft`)

Note that `alt-t` and `alt-shift-t` have been kept as aliases (because
no-one complained about `t` yet; but we may remove them completely in
the future).

Licensing

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
