[Spice-devel] [spice-gtk 1/9] widget: Do not ignore unsupported keys from keyboard

[Frediano Ziglio]

If Windows layout does not support a given key the resulting virtual code
is set to 0xFF. To avoid losing this raw key (causing the key not been
sent to remote machine) detect this condition and handle the key.
The check for raw scancode is there to understand if we can handle
correctly the key in following code.
This problem can happen for instance using a 106 key Japanese keyboard
while the layout is set in English; in this case keys like CONVERT not
forwarded correctly.
