Control for scrolling

hi...

here is a collection of patches that makes Control the modifier for zooming 
when used with the scrollmouse. it affect khtml (and thereby kmail and other 
zooming khtml users), Konq's file management IconView (zooming of icon 
sizes), and KGhostView. the reason for this is two fold:

 1. as David noted on kfm-devel, Control is a modifier of an action, Shift is 
an "amplifier", so it makes more sense to use Control to modify the meaning 
of the scroll wheel rather than Shift.

 2. Consistency: KView and QTextEdit uses Control for zoom control, the apps 
affected by the patches below use Shift.

this needs to be codified somewhere eventually, but for now...... =)
