Keyboard shortcut \<- for ← not working

[thorimur]

Description

The hover on ← says that \<- is a valid keyboard shortcut for it (and is one that I personally have muscle memory for), but it's overtaken by the (also very nice) new autoclosing behavior for angle brackets introduced by #405.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Type \<-space

Expected behavior: ← is inserted

Actual behavior: ⟨- ⟩ is inserted

Versions

v0.0.130
4.7.0-rc1

One fix for this is of course "remove the \<- keyboard shortcut", but I wonder: is it possible to have VS Code somehow consider ⟨- a keyboard shortcut for ←? Though I suppose deletion of ⟩ would need to be handled somehow, which that PR's description seems to indicate is difficult.

Ah. That's very unfortunate. I will revert the change since this affects lots of other abbreviations as well.
