Warn user when overriding a pre-existing input gesture #3605

When you assign an NVDA function to a hotkey which is already assigned, the user is not warned that this key is currently in use or has been assigned to another function.
Example:

  1. Open the "input gestures" dialog box.
  2. Assign a function to the insert-T hotkey.

Of course, the insert-T hotkey is usually the key to read the title bar. NVDA will allow you to make this choice and will override the current function of insert-T, without first warning the user that this key is in use.
Blocking #4915
