Fixed #5205: Ctrl+Alt+2 doesn't send ^[^@ (#5272)
## Summary of the Pull Request

Fixes #5205, by replacing another use of `MapVirtualKeyW` with `ToUnicodeEx`.
The latter just seems to be much more consistent at translating key combinations in general.
In this particular case though it fixes the issue, because there's no differentiation in `MapVirtualKeyW` for whether it failed to return a character (`'\0'`) or succeeded in turning `^@` into `'\0'`.
`ToUnicodeEx` on the other hand returns the success state separately from the translated character.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

This PR changes the behavior of the `Ctrl+Alt+Key` handling slightly:
⚠️ `ToUnicodeEx` returns unshifted characters. ⚠️
For instance `Ctrl+Alt+a` is now turned into `^[^a`. Due to how ASCII works this is essentially the same though because `'A' & 0b11111` and `'a' & 0b11111` are the same.

## Validation Steps Performed

* Run `showkey -a`
* Ensured `Ctrl+Alt+Space` as well as `Ctrl+Alt+Shift+2` are turned into `^[^@`
* Ensured other, random `Ctrl+Alt+Key` combination behave identical to the current master
