patch that allows backtab to work

Here's a REALLY SIMPLE patch to fix this problem.  As  John T. Ellis noted,
shift-tab sends the Backtab key (at least on my X-server: xorg-x11-6.7.0-r1 on
Gentoo Linux x86).  While the end user can change the config by manually
editing a keymap file, this sort of thing should really work without user
intervention.  As a point of reference, xterm does not have this problem.
  
I don't see how this patch could break anything, but my understanding of the
way X handles keys is quite limited.  So I don't want to commit a change that
might break something.	Can a konsole developer to give this patch a look? 
I'll gladly commit the changes to CVS if I get the approval.
