Add the ability to assign hotkeys to individual Spotlight Actions

[dipique]

Because spotlight is already registering actions and hotkeys, it would be very helpful if hotkeys could also be registered to trigger specific actions. This would currently be accomplished by manually registering hotkeys in your app and then triggering spotlight actions.

Unsolicited implementation ideas

interface SpotlightAction could have the following added:

/** Keyboard shortcut that triggers this specific action without opening the spotlight overlay */
  shortcut?: string;

The shortcut parsing could follow the same rules as the shortcut prop for SpotlightProvider. Based on some cursory investigation, the existing useHotkeys hook looks completely suitable for this use.

I am thinking that perhaps the hotkey could be registered inside prepareAction, but my understanding of hooks is very weak.

You can use use-hotkeys hook to perform any actions that will be invoked without spotlight being opened

Thanks, @rtivital. I believe I mentioned that in the request. The reason I thought this convenience feature was compelling is because hotkey binding is already built into the spotlight component, and mimicking that format at the action level seems like a great convenience feature that leverages already-existing features in an intuitive way.

However, if that doesn't add sufficient value in your opinion, feel free to close the request.
