Honor the URL shift binding for bare PR links.

The URL settings say they apply to terminal URLs, but shift-clicking a bare PR URL always opens the external browser. This also overrides the default newTab binding. Honor the shift binding for these links, or document the exception in the settings.

around lines 57 - 62:
Update runTerminalLinkAction so shift-clicking a bare pull-request URL reaches
getUrlAction and honors the configured URL shift binding, including the default
newTab binding. Keep the bare-PR pane fallback for cases where getUrlAction
returns null.

Kept deliberately: shift-click on a bare PR URL opened the system browser before this change, and making it follow the map would flip that default to a new in-app tab for everyone, which felt like a maintainer's call rather than something to slip into a bug fix. The PR body states the trade-off; happy to make shift follow the map too if that is the preferred behaviour.

@abudker That makes sense. Preserving the existing Shift-click behavior avoids a separate default change in this bug fix.

The URL setting still has an exception for bare PR URLs. Would you like a follow-up issue to track documenting or revisiting that exception?
