  <ctrl> key now known as <primary> which breaks keyboard shortcuts

Bug description:
  Previously we used to call the control key <Control> but this has now
  been changed in GNOME so when the control key is pressed <primary> is
  returned. In compiz we set keyboard shortcuts as (for example)
  <Control><Alt><Left>.

  When changing settings in gnome-control-center (for example) we will
  set <primary>  but in compiz we're looking for <control> which breaks
  keyboard actions.

  This also affects CCSM for setting keyboard shortcuts.
