infinite loop on launch after Settings > Keybindings > Restore defaults #2091

Description

@akhra

symptom: running natively on Linux via Steam, game froze on launch (before creating a window) with 100% CPU usage; had run fine before.

launching via keeper_linux.sh showed infinite repetition of:

Error loading keybindings: ./keybindings.txt: line: 29 column: 36:
Unknown key code: "KEY_MODIFIER"

keybindings.txt line 29 contained:

MESSAGE_HISTORY modify KEY_MODIFIER

removing this line fixed it. in the prior session I had poked at bindings a little, then reset them. on a hunch, I repeated this: the line reappeared, and once again I could not launch. this occurs whether or not keybindings are already at defaults.

encountered on CachyOS, an Arch Linux variant. unknown whether it's platform-specific.
