Summary: Better use of virtual events.

Initial Comment:
Some observations:
- In listbox.tcl, <Control-Left> is bound to scrolling back a page, but on
  Mac it should be bound to <Option-Left>
- in console,tcl <Control-a> and <Home> are both bound to the same
  action.
- many more of similar examples, all related to the 6 virtual events
  mentioned below.

All of those (and more) can be solved by using the virtual events
<<PrevChar>>, <<NextChar>>, <<PrevWord>>, <<NextWord>>
<<LineStart>> and <<LineEnd>> in stead of <Left>, <Right>,
<Control-Left>, <Control-Right>, <Home/Control-Key-a> and
<End/Control-Key-e> in all bindings.
