Many shortcuts conflict with ChromeVox

Project Member Reported by kathrelk...@chromium.org, Feb 11 2017

Issue description

9209.18.0, 57.0.2987.32

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Enable ChromeVox (ctlr+alt+z)
(2) Press the lock shortcut (search+l)

Expect that there's some shortcut to lock the screen while ChromeVox is enabled.  Instead, navigation to next link happens when using the standard shortcut.

See also the shortcuts for:
suspend
caps lock
page up/down, home, end
task manager
delete
context menu

Chromevox has a shortcut that allows a user to pass the next key through to the OS. I think that this is the only way to deal with this problem. There are simply not enough modifiers on Chromebooks to reserve a key only for Chromevox.

Testing ChromeVox with each of these areas:

lock screen, search + l: fail, conflicts with next list
suspend, shift + search + l: fail, conflicts with previous list

caps lock, alt + search: pass, works   
page up/down, home, end: Alt + Up arrow, Alt + Up arrow, ctrl + alt + up arrow, ctrl + alt + down arrow: pass, no conflict in that they still work with ChromeVox on; however, it doesn't actually advance the ChromeVox focus which is another bug 877564
task manager: search + esc: pass, opens (master bug for task manager is bug 101762)
delete: delete next character is alt + backspace and delete previous word is ctrl + backspace: works but ChromeVox doesn't announce it, bug 877572
context menu: shift + search + volume up: pass, works

Since most of these conflicts are now fixed, I'm going to open another bug just to isolate the two that still fail: 
lock screen, search + l: fail, conflicts with next list
suspend, shift + search + l: fail, conflicts with previous list
