Add power-user keyboard mode for ChromeOS with Search key acting as a typical Fn key.
All new behaviour in this CL is hidden behind the command line flag
--enable-chromebook-function-key.
Currently the keyboard shortcuts for PageUp, PageDown, Delete, etc are all
accessed by holding Alt or Alt+Control. This prevents you from using Alt or
Control as a modifier to the desired keyboard shortcut, which prevents access
to advanced keyboard shortcuts in applications, and even normal shortcuts such
as Control-End to move to the end of the document.
This adds a command line flag --enable-chromebook-function-key that adds a
checkbox to the Keyboard settings UI. When the checkbox is enabled, the
Search key replaces Alt/Control as the modifier used to access advanced
keyboard shortcuts such as Home, Delete, etc. The following shortcuts
become accessible with the Search key:
Search+Up => Page Up
Search+Down => Page Down
Search+Left => Home
Search+Right => End
Search+Backspace => Delete
