Conversation
Structured around the four `add_common_*` sets rather than one table per mode, since what separates the modes is which sets they compose and which single keys they override. Filing the shared bindings under emacs instead leaves vi insert described by subtraction. Closes nushell#350. Supersedes nushell#1119, which predates helix.

Summary
#350 asks for an end-user table of the default keybindings.
#1119 took a run at it but went quiet, and it predates helix, so this supersedes it.
Structured around the four
add_common_*sets rather than one table per mode, as I asked for in my review on #1119.Each mode section stands on its own and lists only what it adds.
Docs only, no API or behavior change.
Additional notes
A few descriptions did not match what reedline actually does and now describe reedline, notably vi
I(MoveToLineStart, not vim's first non-blank) andCtrl-d(deletes a grapheme unless the buffer is empty).closes #350
The emacs and vi tables started from @Semak12345's work in #1119, thanks for that.
