Title:
  remove Mahara keyboard short keys

Status in Mahara:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  It has been decided that the Mahara character short keys will be
  removed from the code.  Often, the key mapping short cuts may
  interfere with assistive technologies rather than offer more
  convenience especially if a person cannot re-map the keys to those of
  their own choosing.

  The requirement for WCAG2.1 A 2.1.4 Character Shortcuts (if present)
  is a new addition but we will not be implementing the support needed
  to keep compliance for this feature and will thus remove it.

  The key mappings can be found here:
  /js/keyboardNavigation.js with reference to the file in /lib/web.php.  Please remove this feature and clean up any references to it.
