hterm: add option to bind default set of keyboard shortcuts on a per-OS basis

Project Member Reported by vapier@chromium.org, Jun 27 2017 
in macOS, people are used to command+left/right arrow keys being home/end.  in hterm, we end up eating these by default and passing them thru (where command==meta).

we should add a new preference like "keybindings-os-default" where we initialize a default set of keybindings (before adding in the user's "keybindings") that are common/normal for that platform.

in macOS, we'd probably start with:
{
  "Meta-Left": "'\u001b[H'",
  "Meta-Right": "'\u001b[F'"
}

macOS has a lot of common bindings using ⌘ (command), so we probably should just add a binding there like "Meta-*": "PASS".

Comment 2 by vapier@chromium.org, Jul 7 2017 

since meta-q in macOS is "quit program", and "program" here is Chrome, we probably want to rewrite that to the equiv of meta-w ("close window") for now

for CrOS, we probably want to whitelist Alt-Shift-i which triggers feedback reports.  for people in crosh, eating this shortcut can confuse them.
