This prevents this particular shortcut for interfering with the selection of text in some advanced TUI text editors like micro (fixes #676).

We already have the following shortcuts for changing tabs:

ctrl + tab, ctrl + shift + tab;
ctrl + pgup, ctrl + pgdown;
ctrl + shift + pgup, ctrl + shift + pgdn;

These are all consistent with both Files and Web. Terminal should follow this standard as well.

Requesting a review from @jeremypw here. I think it makes sense to standardize shortcuts here and make sure we're not interfering with terminal apps
