Consider adding support for win in key bindings? #3184

Description of the new feature/enhancement

Support more keystroke on keybinding like: meta (win) key.
In most UNIX terminal, Ctrl, Alt and Shift are captured by the program, if we use these modifiers to bind keybinding, we cannot send these keys into the program.

Like most terminal emulators in macOS, they most use command (cmd) key to bind shortcuts to avoid prevent occupying sending these modifiers into terminal, IMO, Terminal should support capturing Win (Meta) as modifier and allowing to bind shortcuts.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

It seems that Windows::System::VirtualKeyModifiers supports Win key, so is this feature possible?
