Control + A Clears the text field instead of selecting all text
As of Game version 1.13+
Control + A no longer highlights all text in a field and now will just clear the field. This does NOT happen on other OS such as windows

Which keyboard layout do you use?
English US
And does this issue only happen inside of Minecraft? Or does it affect other programs as well?
Only in Minecraft versions 1.13 and higher
Seems to be some package installed on LinuxMint causing the issue as it does not happen on Arch
Ctrl-A does not work, it will just reset the entire text to "a".
Other keybinds also don't work, it looks like `charTyped` is called after `keyPressed`
is called, making it "type" the character after executing the shortcut.
Tested on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on Minecraft 1.15.2 and 20w22a.
