[Bug] Alt Gr key is mishandled, Ctrl key stays in pressed state, editor is unusable on AZERTY #1810

Operating System

Windows

What's the issue you encountered?

When using ImHex with an AZERTY keyboard and using the Alt Gr key to type special chars (such as {}[]@), the Ctrl key (which is emitted by Windows since Alt Gr ~= Ctrl+Alt) stays in pressed state,

How can the issue be reproduced?

Hold AltGr and press 5. A [ is produced. Release AltGr. Press the F key. The find panel opens, as if Ctrl had been held. This makes typing almost impossible since punctuation is quite common in the pattern language, and I end up erasing all my code any time I press the A key after using AltGr for something (since it selects all the text, and the next key erases it).

I have the exact same issue, although this is on a QWERTY keyboard with Nordic layout, but the principle is the same. Any time I use Alt Gr (Which is quite often since Alt Gr + 7 is '{' on my keyboard) it get's "stuck" and for a while it is if my keyboard is possessed instead of writing in the editor it opens all sorts of shortcuts 😅 I am on version 1.35.4 as well.
