Update Windows configuration file

The Windows configuration file was outdated compared to the other
configuration files, since there were some major changes to the config
during the development of the Windows PR.

All changes between the Linux and Windows configuration file have been
removed, preserving platform-specific configuration defaults that were
intentionally changed.

Some minor changes have also been made to the Linux and macOS
configuration files, since there were some inconsistencies left.

This fixes #1692.

 # Key bindings
 #
-# Each binding is defined as an object with some properties. Most of the
-# properties are optional. All of the alphabetical keys should have a letter for
-# the `key` value such as `V`. Function keys are probably what you would expect
-# as well (F1, F2, ..). The number keys above the main keyboard are encoded as
-# `Key1`, `Key2`, etc. Keys on the number pad are encoded `Number1`, `Number2`,
-# etc.  These all match the glutin::VirtualKeyCode variants.
+# Key bindings are specified as a list of objects. Each binding will specify
+# a key and modifiers required to trigger it, terminal modes where the binding
+# is applicable, and what should be done when the key binding fires. It can
+# either send a byte sequnce to the running application (`chars`), execute
+# a predefined action (`action`) or fork and execute a specified command plus
+# arguments (`command`).
 #
-# Possible values for `mods`
-# `Command`, `Super` refer to the super/command/windows key
-# `Control` for the control key
-# `Shift` for the Shift key
-# `Alt` and `Option` refer to alt/option
+# Example:
+#   `- { key: V, mods: Command, action: Paste }`
 #
-# mods may be combined with a `|`. For example, requiring control and shift
-# looks like:
+# Available fields:
+#   - key
+#   - mods (optional)
+#   - chars | action | command (exactly one required)
+#   - mode (optional)
 #
-# mods: Control|Shift
+# Values for `key`:
+#   - `A` -> `Z`
+#   - `F1` -> `F12`
+#   - `Key1` -> `Key0`
+#
+#   A full list with available key codes can be found here:
+#   https://docs.rs/glutin/*/glutin/enum.VirtualKeyCode.html#variants
+#
+#   Instead of using the name of the keys, the `key` field also supports using
+#   the scancode of the desired key. Scancodes have to be specified as a
+#   decimal number.
+#   This command will allow you to display the hex scancodes for certain keys:
+#     `showkey --scancodes`
+#
+# Values for `mods`:
+#   - Command
+#   - Control
+#   - Shift
+#   - Alt
+#
+#   Multiple `mods` can be combined using `|` like this: `mods: Control|Shift`.
+#   Whitespace and capitalization is relevant and must match the example.
+#
+# Values for `chars`:
+#   The `chars` field writes the specified string to the terminal. This makes
+#   it possible to pass escape sequences.
+#   To find escape codes for bindings like `PageUp` ("\x1b[5~"), you can run
+#   the command `showkey -a` outside of tmux.
+#   Note that applications use terminfo to map escape sequences back to
+#   keys. It is therefore required to update the terminfo when
+#   changing an escape sequence.
+#
+# Values for `action`:
+#   - Paste
+#   - PasteSelection
+#   - Copy
+#   - IncreaseFontSize

+#   - ScrollPageUp
+#   - ScrollPageDown
+#   - ScrollToTop
+#   - ScrollToBottom
+#   - ClearHistory
+#   - Hide
+#   - Quit
 #
-# The parser is currently quite sensitive to whitespace and capitalization -
-# capitalization must match exactly, and piped items must not have whitespace
-# around them.
+# Values for `command`:
+#   The `command` field must be a map containing a `program` string and
+#   an `args` array of command line parameter strings.
 #
-# Either an `action`, `chars`, or `command` field must be present.
-#   `action` must be one of `Paste`, `PasteSelection`, `Copy`, or `Quit`.
-#   `chars` writes the specified string every time that binding is activated.
-#     These should generally be escape sequences, but they can be configured to
-#     send arbitrary strings of bytes.
-#   `command` must be a map containing a `program` string, and `args` array of
