should we converge the wording with the URL one? it's simple, and puts the keyboard shortcut first. alt+click to split the current window

unfortunately we chose to do all lowercase for TC:

src\cascadia\TerminalControl\Resources\en-US\Resources.resw
179:    <value>ctrl+click to follow link</value>

Want me to make a quick PR to fix these up? They should technically have the uppercase first letter.
