Slider control: "Home" and "End" keystrokes behavior is confusing when orientation is vertical
See original GitHub issueDescribe the bug
When using a Slider with a vertical orientation like the one below, pressing the “Home” key moves the slider thumb to the bottom and pressing the “End” key moves the slider thumb to the top.
This is fine with horizontal sliders to go to the minimum value (to the left) when pressing “Home” and to the maximum value (to the right) when pressing “End”, but this logic is confusing for vertical sliders as in that case the minimum value is at the bottom and the maximum one at the top of the slider.
Steps to reproduce the bug Run the following XAML code, focus the slider with the keyboard and press “Home” or “End” key.
<Slider Height="150" Orientation="Vertical" />
Expected behavior I would expect the slider thumb to go to the top when I press “Home” and to the bottom when I press “End”.

Home should map to the minimum value on the slider and End should map to the maximum value on the slider. This is really the only logically mapping and corresponds with what those keys mean when using them for text editing (Home is character index 0 (min) and End is character index N (max)). Within that context, the vertical slider is behaving correctly I believe.
The purpose of Home is the to go to the top. End is to go to the bottom.
