    inputMethod: Handle IBusInputContext::forward-key-press
    
    The input method may hint that certain keycodes should be pressed/released
    besides the textual information in ::commit. An example is hitting space
    in some IMs to commit text, where both ::commit happens, and an space is
    visibly inserted. In order to handle this properly, we must honor
    ::forward-key-press.
    
    In order to cater for the case that a keypress is forwarded while handling
    that same keypress in a physical keyboard, check the current event being
    handled and just forward it as-is if it matches. This is necessary to
    prevent state from being doubly set, and the second event silenced away.

    Closes: #275
