This PR adds even more insert symbols:

  • Degree symbol
  • Minus, times and division signs
  • Per mille symbol
  • Hypen bullet

Together with the other bullet symbols, and the single and double prime symbols added in #603, there should now be most of the symbols you'd want to use in a non-technical text. These should cover the symbols used to specify coordinates (degree, primes) and dimensions (times) and similar in-text non-character symbols. The correct math symbol for minus is useful as well, as dash or hyphen are not the correct ones. The division symbol is the "old fashioned" one of a fraction line with dots above and below. This, and the per mille symbol, are probably marginally useful, but per mille is used in some languages more than in English.

This PR also changes the keyboard shortcuts for wrapping text in single and double quotes. It makes much more sense to have the shortcut use Ctrl+" and Ctrl+', and reuse the Ctrl+D for strike through text, which is a quite common shortcut for that.
