Add 'Enter' key as a hotkey to open selected item
There are a few things that need to be done, to make this work. First, we need to register `Enter` as another hotkey that opens the selected item. However, by default the `KeyboardHandler` will override all default actions. That might make sense for any other key, but for the `Enter` key, we want to keep the default behavior (i.e. follow a selected link or press a button). So for this single key event, we do not call `preventDefault()`. I see this as unproblematic for the following reasons. 1. With the changes from #2348, when we're in a list of items (articles, categories, feeds), there is no link selected. This is what made the `Enter` key work _implicitly_ in the past. With nothing selected, the `Enter` key will do nothing by default. 2. If we have **any** link selected (including when we are in a view with a list of selectable items), we'll get the default action of `Enter` (i.e. follow a link), which is exactly what we had before. Lastly, we need to update the list of keyboard shortcuts displayed when pressing `?`. This fixes #2366.
