Prevent Sugar capture <Ctrl>z and <Ctrl>q send them to vte SL #3222 OLPC #11836

Used the same approach than the solution for the Escape
capture when the activity is fullscreen mode.  Refactored the
method to allow this keystrokes.

This fixes http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/11836 and
http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/3222 .
