Currently, we listen to keyboard events to find out which keys should be represented in RawKeyboard.instance.keysPressed, but that's not sufficient to represent the physical state of the keys, since modifier keys could have been pressed when the overall app did not have keyboard focus (especially on desktop platforms). This PR synchronizes the list of modifier keys in keysPressed with the modifier key flags that are present in the raw key event so that they can be relied upon to represent the current state of the keyboard. When synchronizing these states, we don't send any new key events, since they didn't happen when the app had keyboard focus, but if you ask "is this key down", we'll give the right answer
Flutter is Google's SDK for crafting beautiful, fast user experiences for mobile, web and desktop from a single codebase. Flutter works with existing code, is used by developers and organizations around the world, and is free and open source.

About Flutter
We think Flutter will help you create beautiful, fast apps, with a productive, extensible and open development model.
Beautiful user experiences
We want to enable designers to deliver their full creative vision without being forced to water it down due to limitations of the underlying framework. Flutter's layered architecture gives you control over every pixel on the screen, and its powerful compositing capabilities let you overlay and animate graphics, video, text and controls without limitation. Flutter includes a full set of widgets that deliver pixel-perfect experiences on both iOS and Android.
Fast results
Flutter is fast. It's powered by the same hardware-accelerated Skia 2D graphics library that underpins Chrome and Android. We architected Flutter to support glitch-free, jank-free graphics at the native speed of your device. Flutter code is powered by the world-class Dart platform, which enables compilation to 32-bit and 64-bit ARM machine code for iOS and Android, as well as JavaScript for the web and Intel x64 for desktop devices.
Productive development
Flutter offers stateful hot reload, allowing you to make changes to your code and see the results instantly without restarting your app or losing its state.
Extensible and open model
Flutter works with any development tool (or none at all), but includes editor plug-ins for both Visual Studio Code and IntelliJ / Android Studio. Flutter provides thousands of packages to speed your development, regardless of your target platform. And accessing other native code is easy, with support for both FFI and platform-specific APIs.
Flutter is a fully open source project, and we welcome contributions. Information on how to get started can be found at our contributor guide.
