Fixes #3298
Fixes #11029

Summary of the issue:

As summarized by @bhavyashah in #3298 (comment):

• Backspace erases the character at the left of the system caret and NVDA reports the erased character.
• Delete erases the character at the right of the system caret and NVDA reports the character to the immediate right of the deleted character.
• Ctrl+Backspace deletes the word at the left of the system caret and NVDA reports the erased word.
• However, the bug is that when Ctrl+Delete is pressed, and it erases the word to the right of the system caret, NVDA remains silent. A user would ideally expect to hear the word present at the immediate right of the deleted word when Ctrl+Delete is pressed for consistency as well as functionality.

Description of how this pull request fixes the issue:

NVDA now announces the word present at the immediate right of the deleted word when control+delete is pressed.

Testing performed:

Deleted by characters and by words in various editors including Notepad, Microsoft Word and HTML forms with Google Chrome.

Known issues with pull request:

As mentioned in various comments in both #3298 and #11029, some might have expected the deleted word should be announced, just like with control+backspace.
However, for consistency with backspace vs delete, I took here the path described by @bhavyashah in #3298 (comment):
Of course, you're welcome to criticize this decision.

Also, I did not lint the whole of the reused code and kept the legacy gesture binding pattern in order to reduce the diff and ease review. Please tell if you prefer otherwise.
