feat: added forward/backward word keybinds (#139)

Added emacsForwardWord and emacsBackwardWord which is used by M-f and
M-b directly. Also added M-d to ctrl delete and removed the bad old
funcion in favor of the fancy new one. Lastly I added alt delete which
deletes with emacsBackwardWord. Works identically to gnu readline
