Description

### Windows Terminal version (or Windows build number)

1.9.1942.0

### Other Software

SharpKeys

### Steps to reproduce

1. Install SharpKeys (or some other similar app) that maps the Caps+Lock key to the Ctrl key
2. open Windows Terminal, and create a tab or a pane.
3. Attempt to close the tab or pane with Ctrl+Shift+W
(using the Caps+Lock key instead of the Ctrl iey)

### Expected Behavior

pane or tab should close

### Actual Behavior

It doesn't close. But if you use the actual Ctrl key, it will work.

Please note that this is not SharpKeys related. That product simply helps construct the data that needs to be placed in the registry. The key mapping is a Windows feature.
