Description
Describe your feature request
When having a file selected in the filesystem view of marktext the behavior of hitting the Delete key should probably resolve in the file being deleted, maybe prompting the user with "are you sure you want to delete "file-name.md"
What problem does this feature solve? [optional]
Not a problem but makes deleting files a more convenient task.
