Remove/change default keybindings for "Undo Chat Edits" and "Undo this Change" #248041

Description

@ascott18

Please consider reverting/removing the "CTRL+Backspace" default keybindings from Copilot chat/edits. I know I can just remove them myself, but I'm also sure I'm not the only one being bitten by this.

For at least the last decade, if not two, it has been ingrained in muscle memory that in almost every application I use, CTRL+Backspace means "delete previous word". But when doing copilot edits, suddenly this means "revert everything, with no way to get back into the edit/diff context". If I want to make minor edits to what copilot produced, its very easy to accidentally discard all the results by hitting CTRL+Backspace. I would never think of backspace as a "cancel" kind of a key - if any key should be triggering a cancel, it should be ESC.
