Implement first global hotkey

[JannikStreek]

• Open Zoho from everywhere in the Lead module, see shortcut list
• Only when extension is activated
• Out of scope: Context related hotkeys, e.g. on the third page + 1 page, send mail to lead etc

I would propose, for the final setup, something like this: https://github.com/b310-digital/teammapper/blob/4e9038994f7236a039d3bbadb6d6893fd7fd795a/teammapper-frontend/src/app/core/services/shortcuts/shortcuts.service.ts

Maybe for best practices in this case: https://github.com/crittermike/shortkeys

Also interesting, the reviews, especially the negative ones: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/shortkeys-custom-keyboard/logpjaacgmcbpdkdchjiaagddngobkck?hl=en-US&gl=US

How NOT to write a keyboard shortcut extension! Every such extension that I have ever used simply allows you to type the key combinations into a box. This one requires you to first read a long document so you can learn how to add a simple shortcut in TEXT. You have to type in TEXT combinations like 'ctrl+shift+right' instead of just typing that key combination.

Sounds awesome, however this extension does not work on mac
I wasted about half an hours reading the documentation and trying to figure out what am i doing wrong...
The Github wiki page should list the supported operating systems

This is a must have extension for Chrome, and I'm a huge fan. However be aware setting Ctrl + S is NOT REVERSIBLE. I accidentally set Ctrl + S for "Switch to last used tab", and now I can't save on any of the editing websites that supports Ctrl + S. I tried to undo the change by uninstalling Shortkeys and even Chrome, but it didn't work. Mike, could you help?

You can add hotkeys by page with jquery selectors

Users can change hotkeys themself even without us providing any help: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46523159/is-it-possible-to-dynamically-toggle-the-hotkey-of-my-chrome-extension

But its not that user friendly if you have many extensions installed
