R319:5345bbb0afa8: Match xterm behaviour when pressing Ctrl+Backspace
Summary

Change the default keyboard translator to match xterm behaviour:

  • Pressing Backspace without any modifiers sends '^?', ASCII DEL character
  • Pressing Control+Backspace sends '^H', BS character

BUG: 391075

Test Plan
  • Before applying the patch pressing Ctrl+V (to insert verbatim) then Backspace, sends '^?'; the same happens with Ctrl+Backspace
  • With the patch:
    • pressing Ctrl+V then Backspace sends '^?'
    • pressing Ctrl+V then Ctrl+Backspace sends '^H'
