The recent overhaul of the keyboard API broke keyboard input on Android.
The recent keyboard changes also broke building against the
game-activity backend of android-activity because it was assumed that
the backend is based on the NDK input API which isn't the case with
with game-activity since it doesn't use the InputQueue API from the NDK.
Any alphanumeric keycodes were being mapped to `Unidentified` Keys
which meant even crude keyboard input support was broken.
We do need to expose `getUnicodeChar` (or the ability to look
up characters based on the current character map and modifiers) but
for now we should at least map alphanumeric keycodes to `Key::Character`
for basic interim support of virtual keyboards.
This moves all the keycode mapping into a separate `keycodes.rs` file
to reduce clutter.
This adds back the mapping from Android key codes to Winit key codes
that we had before the keyboard API overhaul.
Android activity does expose scan codes but key codes currently seem
like the more appropriate mapping to Winit physical key codes.
This removes the gnarly, unsafe cfg() guarded digging into
'native-activity' and 'game-activity' specific implementation details. I
never intended to expose these details in the public API and really
hope to avoid there being a release of Winit that would depend on this.
I'm also hoping/considering if I can get away with sealing this without
necessarily requiring a semver breaking release of android_activity
since this absolutely should never have been possible, and can probably
safely assume this was the only code in the wild that has briefly done
this.
I'm also a bit unclear as to what led to doing this. There is a
`.key_code()` and `.scan_code()` getter and we even already accessed the
keycode in the Android backend so I'm not sure how those APIs were missed.
The correct handling of this setting requires to change the events
we're getting from the macOS on the fly and call `interpretKeyEvents`,
which could affect handling of the next events, meaning that we can't
provide them on `KeyEvent`.
Add named variants for physical back and forward keys which could
be found on some mice. The macOS bits may not work on all the
hardware given that apple doesn't directly support such a thing.

The use of `Filter` was confusing so it was removed inverting the
behavior of the enum and methods using it.

Overhaul the keyboard API in winit to mimic the W3C specification
to achieve better crossplatform parity. The `KeyboardInput` event
is now uses `KeyEvent` which consists of:
- `physical_key` - a cross platform way to refer to scancodes;
- `logical_key` - keysym value, which shows your key respecting the
layout;
- `text` - the text produced by this keypress;
- `location` - the location of the key on the keyboard;
- `repeat` - whether the key was produced by the repeat.
And also a `platform_specific` field which encapsulates extra
information on desktop platforms, like key without modifiers
and text with all modifiers.
The `Modifiers` were also slightly reworked as in, the information
whether the left or right modifier is pressed is now also exposed
on platforms where it could be queried reliably. The support was
also added for the web and orbital platforms finishing the API
change.
This change made the `OptionAsAlt` API on macOS redundant thus it
was removed all together.
