Add the possibility to jump back in the code

[Cronos87]

Adding the possibility to jump back in the code editor would be an excellent enhancement for people who like to code mainly using the keyboard.

This feature can be tested in VSCode by pressing the CTRL + - shortcut. Doing so, the editor will bring you back to the code you were editing before. The contrary is also true; pressing CTRL + SHIFT + - will jump forward in the code history.

Here is an article speaking about this: https://bobbyhadz.com/blog/vscode-go-to-last-edit-location#got-to-the-previous-or-next-location-in-vs-code

Keep in mind it is just a suggestion to enhance the coding experience for people like me who like to use only the keyboard 😁

Thanks for the proposal! Consolidating in #4989.

For me (on WIndows) it works already with ALT + LEFT_CURSOR_KEY and ALT + RIGHT_CURSOR_KEY in Godot, VSCode, and most browsers.

I take you are on macOS given the shortcut you suggest and the linked article. I presume you can modify the actions in Godot to match.

Addendum:

There.
