CmdPal: Add low-level keyboard hook for global hotkey (#38250)

Browse Source 
Adds the ability to make the global CmdPal hotkey a low-level hook. This is needed for `win+space`, `win+r`, et al. 

I've only added this to the root hotkey. Other hotkeys will still use the normal `RegisterHotkey` ones. We can re-evaluate this for 0.2+.
