This PR avoids an issue where certain keyboard shortcuts could be read out twice by a screenreader. We had been using the symbol for certain modifier keys in conjunction with their name. These strings have been updated to just use the name. I also fully spelled out "Control" and "Escape" to avoid screenreaders stumbling over trying to pronounce the abbreviations, and for general consistency.
