Let tab walk every box again

Tab was doing what space does, which is wrong. N1MM's EntryWindow does not
touch the tab key — ProcessCmdKey only remaps NumPad Enter — so tab there is
plain navigation through the boxes in the order they are laid out: the reports
at tab index 3 and 4, the name at 26, the section at 30, the zone at 32, the
comment at 40. Only space goes through NextTab, which is the walk that steps
over the reports.

So tab now walks every box, reports, name and comment included, and shift and
tab walk back. Space is unchanged.

### Space and tab
Space and tab move between the callsign box and the exchange boxes and round
again, which is N1MM's walk. The report boxes are stepped over, because nobody
types 599: leaving the callsign box fills them with the report for the mode,
599 on CW and digital, 59 on phone. So in CQ WW, space takes you from the
callsign straight to the zone, and space again brings you back to the callsign.

They are not the same key, and N1MM does not treat them as one.

It also steps over a box this station is not asked for, such as the state in
CQ WW RTTY for a station outside the US and Canada. So in CQ WW, space takes you
from the callsign straight to the zone, and space again brings you back.
Tab walks every box in turn — callsign, the exchange including the reports, the
name and the comment — and round again; shift and tab go the other way. N1MM
does not touch the tab key at all, so tab there walks its boxes in the order
they are laid out, which is what this does.
