`NumMinus` in `[3] branches` checks out previous branch even with `Shift-` modifier

[goyalyashpal]

Describe the bug

NumMinus in [3] branches checks out previous branch even with Shift- modifier

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• 3 > Shift-NumMinus

Expected behavior

• just like Shift-NumPlus cycles the view in one direction (bigger), i thought Shift-NumMinus would cycle the view in other direction (smaller)
• i stumbled upon this when trying to cycle views while in diff mode (View branch diff #466 (comment))
• my expectation for Shift-NumMinus cycling views might have been wrong, but lg's behaviour of cycling branch checkouts is not inline with gui-documentation either. it should have done nothing.

No, the "prev screen mode" command is not bound to shift-Minus, it is bound to underscore. That's an important difference. It's the same key on the main keyboard area of a US keyboard, but in other languages it isn't.

The fact that Shift-NumPlus does the same as NumPlus could be considered a bug; I think we will be able to fix that with the big keybinding revamp that I'm planning to do at some point, now that we use the newer tcell version that makes this possible.

Fix in #5410.
