Support INSERT key in addition to SPACE for selecting items in ListView

See this request here: PowerShell/ConsoleGuiTools#79 (comment)

Multi selection is also non-intuitive - not being able to close on Enter, nor using Insert for marking lines is very annoying behavior :(

I've thought more about this and I think this is a bad idea. I do not know what existing UI framework uses INSERT to select items. INSERT feels very arbitrary to me. It has been a common idiom on Mac and Windows that space selects/deselects UI items.

It would really be a bad option in addition to the fact that this key has already been defined for the activation / deactivation of text insertion or overlay.

INSERT is by default used to select items in both "Midnight Commander" and "Far Commander", which are very popular console file managers for Linux and Windows respectively. Not sure what people are using on Mac these days, assume mc as well?

Shows you what I know.

I'm reopening this because the argument that folks used to those console tools might expect INS to select items is valid.

I'm curious: On MC and FC, what does INS do when in an edit field? Or on other controls like buttons and check boxes?

If someone wants to help contribute and submit a PR for this, we're open to that!

Thanks. I guess i just have too much muscle memory, keep hitting INSERT in console lists in file managers :) I've tried INS on my mc in both wsl and ubuntu vm, and I don't see it doing anything on edit fields or buttons. Neither bottom command nor edit box is reacting to INSERT.
I'll try to look into doing PR for that, will look around the code.
