Adam Barth 3ddae5ea36 Switch KeyboardEvents over to NewEventHandler
This CL moves KeyboardEvents from the old event model to NewEventHandler. This
CL keeps the basic structure of keydown, keypress, keyup events even though
that's a bit wacky. As with pointer and gesture events, this CL removes
PlatformKeyboardEvent in favor of just using WebKeyboardEvent. I've also made
WebKeyboardEvent align more closely with Mojo's keyboard event.

The CL does change one important aspect of key event handling: on the web the
"keyCode" property of KeyboardEvent changes its meaning depending on whether
the event is a keydown or a keypress event. For the former events, keyCode is
the "virtual" (i.e., windows) key code where for the latter events, keyCode is
the character code. To be more precise, I've renamed keyCode to virtualKeyCode
and I've given it a zero (unknown key code) value during keypress events.
