theia: alt+n triggers a new file while editor is focused

Instead it should insert ~ only. It is not a regression.

Maybe change to cmd+alt+n on Mac?

why pressing alt+n should insert ~?

BTW: on mac with US layout alt+n inserts a superscript tilde, which when followed e.g. by an n allows to enter Enye (Ñ, ñ).

Most importantly here that the new file dialog does not pop up on any platform if an editor is focused and such keys expected to insert something.
