Option to disable shortcut detection

[jcdickinson]

Shortcut detection is severely hindering my ability to demonstrate my keyboard ninja skills.

Could you explain this one a little more. Our original intentions for Carnac was to overlay shortcuts (mainly) for presentations so people can learn/understand what we are doing.
You seem to want a opposite behavior, so more information about why would be useful

Sorry, work has just been absolutely insane since I last had a chance to work on this stuff.

The original problem was that SPACE was displaying as " ". This lead me to believe that the actual keys were being eaten when I hit CTRL+SPACE in Visual Studio (due to shortcut replacement) because it displayed as "CTRL + [Complete Member]". The actual problem was that space didn't have a special key replacement, which I addressed in my second PR (replace with with "Space" when a modifier is being held down): but I decided that some people might want to disable the shortcut detection for some reason: so it was worth leaving in.

I have used some of the ideas in another PR fixing the space issue you talked about, and put shortcuts only mode in.

Maybe open up a discussion issue for the keys only mode to get some feedback on the idea.

I recall another simplification of the special keys in your PR. Maybe you could do another pr with just that change.

Thanks for the PR.
