The chord matcher couldn't represent a bare or double-tapped modifier:
KeyChord.parse required a base key, so `shift shift` failed, and JetBrains
"Search Everywhere" (double-Shift) was unbindable.
Design decision: search-everywhere aliases clide's existing quick-open
finder (not a new overlay) — bound across all four presets per the user.
Changes:
- KeyChord: a bare modifier name (`shift`, `ctrl`, `cmd`, …) parses as a
modifier-free chord on that modifier's logical key, so parseSequence(
'shift shift') yields a two-chord double-tap. Adds KeyChord.bareModifier
and modifierForLogicalKey.
- ModifierTapTracker: headless, clock-injected double-tap detector. A bare
modifier never forms a single chord; an intervening key breaks the gesture.
- app.dart global handler feeds bare-modifier KeyDowns to the tracker and,
on a double-tap, resolves the 2-chord sequence via the new
KeymapService.resolveSequence. The existing single-chord path is untouched
(zero behavioural risk to normal keys).
- Presets: default/vim/vscode/jetbrains add `shift shift` → quickOpen.open.
jetbrains header updated (the gesture is now expressible).
Tests: bare-modifier parse/equality/round-trip; tracker window/reset/
different-modifier/consume; each shipped preset resolves double-Shift to
QuickOpenIntent.

T-65 — the capstone of the Vim epic. assets/keymaps/vim.yaml binds the
muscle-memory set guarded on vim.normal/insert/visual: hjkl/w/b/e/0/$/^/
gg/G motions, x/dd/dw/D/yy/p/P/cc/cw edits, i/a/I/A/o/O insert entries,
v + d/y/c in visual, Esc back to normal, and counts via the matcher. App
shortcuts (palette, find, zoom) are carried in the preset so they survive
under Vim.
The editor now feeds Shift chords to the matcher (Vim's capitals: G, D,
A, P, $) while still bubbling Ctrl/Alt/Meta to the global handler. The
keybindings-ui stub gains palette commands (`Keymap: Vim` / `Keymap:
Default`) to switch presets — the user-facing way to turn Vim on.
