It is often convenient to use the keyboard to navigate the gitk GUI and there are keyboard shortcut bindings for many operations such as searching and scrolling. There is however no keyboard binding for the most common operations on branches and commits: Check out, reset, cherry-pick, create and delete branches. This PR adds keyboard bindings for these 5 commands. It also adjusts some GUI focus defaults to simplify keyboard navigation. Some refactoring of the command implementation has been necessary. Originally the commands was using the mouse context menu to get info about the head and commit to act on. When using keyboard binds this information isn't available so instead the row that is selected in the GUI is used. By adding procedures for doing this the PR lays the groundwork for more similar keyboard binds in the future. I'm including Paul Mackerras because he seems to be the maintainer of gitk. Can you review, Paul?
