fix

I have "bind C-] send-prefix" in ~/.tmux.conf. alacritty on Wayland doesn't recognize it. Let's apply proposed upstream fix.

Tested build/runtime inside 11.3 i386 jail.

Steps to reproduce:
- pkg install alacritty libxkbcommon mesa-dri dejavu
- Open alacritty under Sway
- Press Ctrl+V
- Press Ctrl+]

Expected result:
^] is printed

Actual result:
Nothing is printed

Hmm, I cannot reproduce it with the given steps.
Comment 2 Tobias Kortkamp freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2020-06-10 10:01:20 UTC 
Anyway, I have not seen any problems with the patch applied, so feel free
to commit it if it fixes something.

Likely the steps are specific to keyboard layout. For one, I have

  $ swaymsg 'input * xkb_layout us(dvp)'

where ] key is located where 0 on qwerty is. On "us" (qwerty) layout Ctrl+] works fine as is (without patch) for me as well.
