Add [Home-Key] shortcut to jump into ~ about broot HOT 4 CLOSED

Problem is the Home key could be used for other things:

1. going top of the list, as in some other list based applications
2. going to the beginning of the input, which is always focused
3. going to ~

I've chosen 2.

I'm open to suggestions regarding a shortcut to go to ~.

What if there was a shortcut on the ~-key?
Or when one enters :~ it could jump to to?

Or Alt + Home?

OK, here's what I'll do (should be done by tomorrow):

1. define a few more internal verbs, among them :focus_root and :focus_user_home
2. allow configuration to map trigger keys to verbs

It means you'll be able to add this to config.toml:

[[verbs]]
invocation = "root"
key = "F9"
execution = ":focus_root"

[[verbs]]
invocation = "home"
key = "ctrl-H"
execution = ":focus_user_home"

In this example, ctrl-H sends to your home, and F9 sends to /.

I don't know if there will also be a default mapping for those actions as none seems obvious.
