Description

I envision being able to click a menu item or hit a hotkey (like Cmd+Shift+?) and be shown all keyboard shortcuts. After we add ability to customize keyboard shortcuts, this would show shortcuts as currently configured. Maybe this could also show commands that currently don't but could have keyboard shortcuts.

Research direction
Investigate the existing keybinding structure in Hyper, likely in `src/keymaps` or similar. Check if there is any existing UI for displaying shortcuts. The issue mentions dependency on a future customization feature, so clarify with maintainers whether this feature should be designed to work independently or only after customization is implemented. Consider designing a modal or a submenu triggered by a hotkey like `Cmd+Shift+?`. Look at comments in the issue for any additional context.
