Unify configuration file structure

This changes a lot of small details in the configuration file in an
attempt to unify its structure. These are some main guidelines used for
this refactoring:
    - Specify that changes require restart consistently
    - Unify the specification of available field values
    - Provide clear distinction between description title and body

Besides these guidelines used to unify minor details in the
configuration file, the section on key configuration has been completely
reworked in an attempt to reduce the amount of text used. This should
make it possible to understand what's going on without having to read
any text.

The notice that modifiers are not supported has been removed from the
mouse binding documentation.

# Key bindings # Key bindings

# Each binding is defined as an object with some properties. Most of the # Key bindings are specified as a list of objects. Each binding will specify
# properties are optional. All of the alphabetical keys should have a letter for # a key and modifiers required to trigger it, terminal modes where the binding
# the `key` value such as `V`. Function keys are probably what you would expect # is applicable, and what should be done when the key binding fires. It can
# as well (F1, F2, ..). The number keys above the main keyboard are encoded as # either send a byte sequnce to the running application (`chars`), execute
# `Key1`, `Key2`, etc. Keys on the number pad are encoded `Number1`, `Number2`, # a predefined action (`action`) or fork and execute a specified command plus
# etc. These all match the glutin::VirtualKeyCode variants. # arguments (`command`).
# #
# A list with all available `key` names can be found here: # Example:
# https://docs.rs/glutin/*/glutin/enum.VirtualKeyCode.html#variants # `- { key: V, mods: Command, action: Paste }`
# #
# Possible values for `mods` # Available fields:
# `Command`, `Super` refer to the super/command/windows key # - key
# `Control` for the control key # - mods (optional)
# `Shift` for the Shift key # - chars | action | command (exactly one required)
# `Alt` and `Option` refer to alt/option # - mode (optional)
# #
# mods may be combined with a `|`. For example, requiring control and shift # Values for `key`:
# looks like: # - `A` -> `Z`
# - `F1` -> `F12`
# - `Key1` -> `Key0`

# The parser is currently quite sensitive to whitespace and capitalization - # Values for `mods`:

# around them. # - Control
# - Shift
# - Alt
# #
# Either an `action`, `chars`, or `command` field must be present. # Multiple `mods` can be combined using `|` like this: `mods: Control|Shift`.
