Description

Describe the solution you'd like

Can shortcut F3 be mapped to the 'select next find match' button (down arrow) when searching in code with Ctrl+F, and Shift=F3 be mapped to the 'select previous find match' button (up arrow)?

Describe alternatives you've considered

The buttons work fine, but the F3/Shift+F3 shurtcuts have registered in my muscle memory due to most other editors having this key mapping.

Research direction

The issue does not name a file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the code-editor search controls and existing keyboard shortcut handling for Ctrl+F; done means F3 selects the next match and Shift+F3 selects the previous match while searching.
