Track keybinding usage/exploration in oder to make the dashboard more intuitive

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

#7715 introduced a new dashboard-wide keybinding: Ctrl/Cmd + O (for "Open in Gitpod")

However, we're unsure whether this is the most intuitive keybinding for our users, who might also want to use Ctrl/Cmd + K or Ctrl/Cmd + P for example.

Getting insights into which keybindings are actually being tried by users on dashboard pages could help inform future keybindings & potentially new features.

Describe the behaviour you'd like

Ping analytics when a user tries one of these keybindings:

• Ctrl/Cmd + O (currently opens the new Open in Gitpod modal)
• Ctrl/Cmd + K (currently focuses the Firefox search bar / does nothing in Chrome)
• Ctrl/Cmd + P (currently opens the print dialog 🖨️ 🧓)
• Ctrl/Cmd + Z (currently does nothing -- except if an input is focused, then it undoes the latest edit)
• .?
• t?
• (konami code could be fun 😛)

However, we shouldn't track any keybindings that we're unlikely to ever use, e.g.:

• Ctrl/Cmd + W (closes browser tab)
• Ctrl/Cmd + L (focuses browser URL bar)
• Ctrl/Cmd + N (opens new browser window)
• Ctrl/Cmd + T (opens new browser tab)
• Ctrl/Cmd + Q (quits the browser? too scared to try 😝)
• Ctrl/Cmd + J (opens browser downloads)
• Ctrl/Cmd + F (in-page search -- some websites choose to override this, but I almost always dislike what they have instead)
• Ctrl/Cmd + Tab (switches between browser tabs)
• Ctrl/Cmd + +/- (controls page zoom level)
• etc

Describe alternatives you've considered

@jankeromnes Is this still relevant? If yes: can we fit this into 0.25 day effort? Does not want to block this per-se if we gain insight, but I don't see a huge overlap with the current priorities, and would opt for "close for now", then. 🙏

@geropl Still relevant, and yes I believe I could implement this in 0.25 day. Maybe schedule, assign to me, and I'll implement it next week?

@jankeromnes Ok then. Fine with scheduling, but definitely lower prio then GHE - let's tick that box first. ✅
