On terminals that report the shift modifier as a separate key event
(e.g. via the Kitty keyboard protocol), shift+backspace was unbound in
both Input and TextArea and did nothing. This binds it to delete_left so
it behaves the same as plain backspace, mirroring the existing
alt+backspace (Textualize#6593) and super+backspace (Textualize#6594) aliases.
