Description
Feature Request Summary
Add support for F21-F24 keys, so they can be picked in keybindings.
Problem / Opportunity & Desired Solution
Some keyboards support F21-F24 keys, but when trying to use them in Loop for keybindings, it doesn't recognize them. Providing support for these would give more possibilities for assigning non-conflicting keybindings.

Research direction
No file or test is identified in the issue. Start by locating the keybinding handling and key-list definitions in the Swift macOS app, then trace how function keys are parsed and presented for selection. Done means F21-F24 can be chosen in keybindings and are recognized when those bindings are used.
