Add option for alphanumeric hints
This PR adds the option to use alphanumeric hints instead of numbers. I personally prefer keeping my fingers close to the home row when navigating and this allows you to do that.
I had to change the matching algorithm a bit to work for non-numeric hints as well, I hope it's still performant enough.
This also fixes a bug where hints would change their text when scrolling/zooming, which broke filtering.

@KennethSundqvist i would really love to see this tested and merged if you have the time
@lucalabs-de do you want to publish your own version of key jump? Because KennethSuldqvist seems to be pretty busy contributing to private repos (probably work).
Ok, i just did it. @lucalabs-de your fork is available on https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/keyjump-alphanumeric/ now
I have 2 issues:
-
Hint generation is inconsistent. I expect to see the same hints when activating 'show hints' multiple times in the same place.
-
Sometimes the hints are repeated.
