Use Alt+Backspace to return to prev document

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.8.0) 
OS:                Linux

It is nice to have a dedicated key combination to return to previous document. I played w/ patched kate and found this feature pretty useful...
Please check attached patch for implementation.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
0. switch to some doc using quick document switcher
1. press Alt+Backspace to back to prev doc


Expected Results:  
u've back to prev document

this should use the de-facto shortcut [1] CTRL + SHIFT + TAB. And to make things complete, please add CTRL + TAB as a quick-next-doc shortcut.

[1]: Afaik KDevelop, Firefox and other tabbed/MDI apps use this shortcut.

Please put patches on git.reviewboard.kde.org in the future

Quick document switcher plugin has internal pointer to a previous document to pre-select it when user press Ctrl+1. I noticed that most of the time I use this plugin just to go back to a prev doc... it is why I done this patch -- use one hot key instead of Ctrl+1, wait some time while dialog appears, press Enter...

I used Alt+TAB to make this feature looks like 'Back' in browsers (which is binded to this combination usually)

We have the tab switcher plugin meanwhile. You can use ctrl+tab to go to the prev document, so this is fixed. You have to update to Kate 5, though.
