[Conkeror] Feature request: recognise Hyper key

It doesn't interpret it as anything, currently.
Alt is meta(default). Caps is control(remapped) when used with another
key, but shows caps_lock is undefined when first pressed/pressed
alone.
I should probably note that I've mapped caps to control and left
control to Hyper.
Most people don't do such things(I suppose a few scientists/teachers
using TeXmacs would, as it suggests mapping caps to hyper for math
expressions.
I just figure there might be a couple power users out there who might
want to use the same keys for 3 different things. Come to think of it,
multi-stroke combos go up exponentially, don't they...
