MetaKeyKeyListener: Disable locking of toggled modifier keys
Toggled (or 'sticky') modifier keys that lock when pressed twice cause unexpected behavior that confuses users. Shift is especially problematic, as there are three distinct Caps Lock states in Android: The Caps Lock key, Alt + Meta, and Shift pressed twice. Only the first illuminates the Caps Lock LED, and each can only be disabled by pressing the right key/combination again. This forces users to 'hunt' to find the right one, and pressing Alt twice will lock that modifier leading to yet more unexpected behavior... Get rid of locking for toggled modifier keys to improve this mess. Change-Id: I94de5d8d051b2d518457a1a44c9ee939508b9abb
