bindings: ship key G action ModeCycle in the built-in default board

Browse Source 
ModeCycle was bound ONLY to the gamepad Start (CONTROLS.MAP), and bindings.txt
carried no action bindings at all -- so a KEYBOARD-ONLY player could not reach
the control mode.  That is the control the torso-twist fix has to be tested
through, and it is a shipped gameplay feature (Basic steers with the stick and
auto-centres the torso; Standard/Veteran twist the torso and steer with the
pedals), so it should not be gamepad-only.

G is free.  M is taken -- it is keypad button 0x02.

DELIBERATELY the default TEMPLATE only, not a bindings-board bump.  content/
bindings.txt is a per-machine runtime file (gitignored) and an existing one is
never overwritten, so:
  * a FRESH extract writes the new board and gets G -- which is the zip flow;
  * an EXISTING tester keeps their file, and their customizations, untouched.
Shipping it to existing files means bumping "# bindings-board" and extending
kHistoricalDefaultRows so board-2 rows are recognised as "the old board" rather
than player customizations.  That is the designed path, but it rewrites every
tester's bindings file, and doing that in the same build as a large unverified
fix pile is how you lose a playtest evening.  Left for a build where it is the
headline change.  Testers on an existing install can add the one line by hand.
