MacOS transform special symbols into expected key press #1607

On MacOS some symbols generated from combintation of Opt-{} and Opt-Shift-{} keys, if we use Opt as an Alt key, we want to send to the running application not special symbol, but actual combination of pressed keys, for example Alt-j instead of \Delta We want to make it configurable

We need to check what Kitty does with option as alt true and false. I'll try to check this as some point, hopefully I can install kitty without littering my system too much.
