F3 + N description in debug help menu still uses "debug.creative_spectator.help" translation string despite the shortcut having a new function

The bug

The F3 + N description in the F3 + Q menu still uses the debug.creative_spectator.help translation string although the shortcut has a new function. Here is a part of the en_us.json language file that demonstrates the bug:

{
  "debug.creative_spectator.help": "F3 + N = Cycle previous gamemode <-> spectator"
}

Fix

The name of the debug.creative_spectator.help translation string should be changed to debug.spectator.help to demonstrate the new function of the debug shortcut. The description should also use the renamed translation string instead of the old one.

How is this report different than MC-183762, except that this report also suggests renaming the translation key?

It is different from that bug report since this one describes the name of the translation string not being relevant anymore to the new function of the shortcut compared to the other one that describes the message not being relevant anymore.

Notice how the translation string is still named debug.*creative_spectator*.help although the debug shortcut has a new function. It should be renamed to debug.*spectator*.help to make the name of the translation string relevant to the new shortcut function.

Can confirm in 1.18.2 and 22w16b.
