Add ability to change link opening behaviour by usage of Shift

In Vimium, you can change the behaviour of link opening by holding down shift
when typing in the hint. So for example, if there's a hint FD
, I would expect typing:
f d
to open the link in the current tab
F D
would open the link in a new tab
When there is ambiguity I would expect the presence of a shift press on the last character to open in a new tab.

Well, F d
will open the link in a new tab. Why hold shift the whole time?

Ah, the idea is you don't need to hold shift the entire time. You only need to hold shift for the last character (in the case of pages with many links)
gggritso commented
That's reasonable. I’ll schedule this and put it into the next patch version.
