[PATCH v5 0/2] cocoa: keyboard quality of life

[gustavo]

From: Gustavo Noronha Silva <gustavo@noronha.dev.br>

v5 addresses the casting issue pointed out by Akihiko Odaki.
Sorry it took me so long to update the patches, but here
they are! Hopefully we can get them in now ;D

Btw I also changed my email address slightly (.dev.br
instead of .eti.br).

-----

This series adds two new options to the cocoa display:

 - full-grab causes it to use a global tap to steal system combos
   away from Mac OS X, so they can be handled by the VM

 - swap-option-command does what it says on the tin; while that is
   something you can do at the Mac OS X level or even supported by
   some keyboards, it is much more convenient to have qemu put
   Meta/Super and Alt where they belong if you are running a
   non-Mac VM

Both are off by default. For full-grab in particular, it is off also
because unfortunately it needs accessibility permissions for input
grabbing, so it requires more deliberate action by the user anyway.

[PATCH v5 1/2] ui/cocoa: capture all keys and combos when mouse is grabbed

[gustavo]

From: Gustavo Noronha Silva <gustavo@noronha.dev.br>

Applications such as Gnome may use Alt-Tab and Super-Tab for different
purposes, some use Ctrl-arrows so we want to allow qemu to handle
everything when it captures the mouse/keyboard.

However, Mac OS handles some combos like Command-Tab and Ctrl-arrows
at an earlier part of the event handling chain, not letting qemu see it.

We add a global Event Tap that allows qemu to see all events when the
mouse is grabbed. Note that this requires additional permissions.

[PATCH v5 2/2] ui/cocoa: add option to swap Option and Command

[gustavo]

From: Gustavo Noronha Silva <gustavo@noronha.dev.br>

On Mac OS X the Option key maps to Alt and Command to Super/Meta. This change
swaps them around so that Alt is the key closer to the space bar and Meta/Super
is between Control and Alt, like on non-Mac keyboards.

It is a cocoa display option, disabled by default.
