config: change macos-option-as-alt default to left

Browse Source 
As suggested: https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/discussions/2363#discussioncomment-10824847

This allows users of non-US keyboard layouts to continue to use the
right option key for input methods, while still being able to use the
the left option key as alt for keybindings.

This is a bit of an experiment to see if this is a good default for
everyone. This is in response to very common confusion of US keyboard
layouts where "alt" doesn't work along with the very common use of
non-US layouts where the right option key is used for input methods.
I think this will strike the right balance for most users.
