Ctrl E overrides a standard macOS keyboard shortcut

[chriskrycho]

Describe the bug
ControlE is a standard macOS keyboard navigation shortcut for "go to end of line," built into every text view on the system by default. (You can find the full list here.) Overriding it for this extension breaks muscle memory for any long-term Mac user who has internalized those shortcuts.

To Reproduce
In any editor view, with this extension installed, hit ^E. It will expand Emmet shortcuts (or try to, and fail, in non-Emmet contexts!), and the cursor will stay where it is.

Expected behavior
Go to end of line, as would be the behavior without the extension installed.

Screenshots
N/A.

Environment (please complete the following information):

• Nova version: v5 build 245280
• Emmet extension version: 1.3.2

Additional context
While this may be a common shortcut for this extension in other editors, it would be better to follow macOS system guidelines for how to treat native text fields and how to build shortcuts. That goes extra for Nova, which exists in no small part to be especially Mac native!

I also find it extremely annoying. ^E works in the terminal where Command+right arrow doesn't. Having to use ^E just in Nova messes with my muscle memory. I believe ^E also works in many linux apps.

IIRC, this has been reported on other Mac editors that support Emmet and they won't change the keyboard binding. However, you can change it yourself in the Key Bindings settings. I tend to bind it to ^; in editors, because it's easy to hit and is rarely bound to anything else.
