Description

Mac standard is to use the "command"/"meta" key for the menu accelerator modifier key instead of ctrl key. The qt client already does this.

fix for gtk3.22 & gtk4.

The helpdata.txt file uses "Ctrl" throughout the Help -> Controls section, and I was going to fix that too, but it also includes things that are not menus. While digging into that I discovered it's an even worse can of worms because the same help text is used in the qt client where it's even more wrong. Filing a new issue #1293 for that.

For S3_3 & main, you should update also gui-gtk-5.0 (which is actually using gtk4 at the moment), at least to make similar change to gui-gtk-4.0 if you can't test gtk5-client. (Same comment for all gtk patches you've done)
