Send xterm 216+ modifiers in small-keypad key escape sequences.

In the 'xterm 216+' function key mode, a function key pressed with a
combination of Shift, Ctrl and Alt has its usual sequence like
ESC[n~ (for some integer n) turned into ESC[n;m~ where m-1 is a 3-bit
bitmap of currently pressed modifier keys.

This mode now also applies to the keys on the small keypad above the
arrow keys (Ins, Home, PgUp etc). If xterm 216+ mode is selected,
those keys are modified in the same way as the function keys.

As with the function keys, this doesn't guarantee that PuTTY will
_receive_ any particular shifted key of this kind, and not repurpose
it. Just as Alt+F4 still closes the window (at least on Windows)
rather than sending a modified F4 sequence, Shift+Ins will still
perform a paste action rather than sending a modified Ins sequence,
Shift-PgUp will still scroll the scrollback, etc. But the keys not
already used by PuTTY for other purposes should now have their
modern-xterm behaviour in modern-xterm mode.

Thanks to H.Merijn Brand for developing and testing a version of this
patch.
