Consistent Alt+BackSpace behavior

The default config specifies BackSpace as "\177". The default behavior
should persist across modifier keys, commonly Mod1 (Alt or Meta) which
is widely used to delete a word on readline and text editors, notably
Emacs.

This will make Alt+BackSpace behaves as expected, i.e. sends "\033\177"
instead of "\033\010" as previous default behavior.
