add zoom shortcuts to the Preview #45

I think that the shortcuts should work when the sidebar is in focus. But I think the best would be that the shortcuts should work when the content-area of the Preview-tab is in focus, what is hard to determine at the moment. It could be that the shortcuts are easier to program with Lua Scripts.

Are you saying you think the shortcuts should allow the editor window to zoom when the sidebar is in focus? Or that those shortcuts should zoom the sidebar when the sidebar is in focus?

I changed my mind: Those shortcuts should NOT zoom when the sidebar is in focus. The reason is noticed down below.

Let's imagine the sidebar is in focus, but not the Preview-tab, but an other tab of the sidebar. Then if a user press the shortcuts, it will zoom, although it should not zoom, because it should only zoom when the Preview-Tab is in focus or rather when the content-area of the Preview-tab is in focus.

I think that this issue has a certain relationship to #5 and #15, because all those issues are about the focus of the content-area of the Preview-tab.
