The operator for this is bpy.ops.object.mode_set_with_submode(), which is not yet documented in the manualbpy.ops.object.mode_set_with_submode(). It allows you to create custom shortcuts that both switch to edit mode and enable a combination of vertex, edge and/or face select.

The keymap can be edited through Edit > Preferences > Keymap. As shown in the screenshot below, you need to set the Identifier to object.mode_set_with_submode, select Edit Mode and choose the desired Submode.
