RFR: 8024624: [TEST_BUG] [macosx] CTRL+RIGHT(LEFT) doesn't move selection on next cell in JTable on Aqua L&F

Aqua L&F tables lacked support for `CTRL+ARROW`, `CTRL+PG_UP/DOWN`, and `CTRL+SHIFT+PG_UP/DOWN` key bindings. This allows for navigation and selection of table cells without the need of a mouse and without deselecting the current selected cell group. 

Those key bindings are added to Aqua's key bindings for tables. The `SPACE` key binding was also added because it allows for the selection of cells after navigating using the `CTRL+ARROW` bindings, and some of the new bindings are only useful with the `SPACE` binding added. The closed test that this bug originates from tests for both left-to-right and right-to-left functionality, so the new directional bindings are also added to the right-to-left key bindings table where needed.

This requires mission control shortcuts in macOS to be disabled as `CTRL+ARROW` keys are normally used for virtual desktop navigation.
