This is a quick exploration into how the new Device:hasFewKeys() method could work to make things more usable on very limited devices.
In the reader, the right is repurposed to open the menu. Left in turn closes it.
The same principle is applied to ButtonDialog. This means you can select anything in principle, but once you go right you can't go back.

* Various FocusManager related tweaks to limit its usage to devices with a DPad, and prevent initial button highlights in Dialogs on devices where it makes no sense (i.e., those without a DPad. And even on DPad devices, I'm not even sure how we'd go about making one of those pop up anyway, because no Touch ;)!).
* One mysterious fix to text-only Buttons so that the flash_ui highlight always works, and always honors `FrameContainer`'s pill shape. (Before that, an unhighlight on a text button with a callback that didn't repaint anything [say, the find first/find last buttons in the Reader's search bar when you're already on the first/last match] would do a square black highlight, and a white pill-shaped unhighlight (leaving the black corners visible)).
The workaround makes *absolutely* no sense to me (as `self[1] -> self.frame`, AFAICT), but it works, and ensures all highlights/unhighlights are pill-shaped, so at least we're not doing maths for rounded corners for nothing ;).
* Switch all initial highlights to "fast" update
i.e., everything that does an invert
Plus a few other things that refresh small UI elements onTap
Re #3130
* Tweak refreshtype for a number of widgets:
* Fix iconbutton dimen
* Make touchmenu flash on close & initial menu popup. Full-screen on close.
* Use flashing updates when opening/closing dictionary popup. Full-screen on close.
* Switch FileManager to partial.
It's mostly text, and we want flash promotion there.
* Make configdialog & menu flash on exit
* Make FLWidget flash on close
* virtualkeyboard: flash on layout change & popup.
* Potentially not that great workaround to ensure we actually see the
highlights in the FM's chevrons
* Flash when closing BookStatus Widget
* Optimize away a quirk of the dual "fast" update in touchmenu
* Promote updates to flashing slightly more agressively.
* Document what each refreshtype actually does.
With a few guidelines on their optimal usecases.
* Switch remaining scheduleIn(0.0) to nextTick()
* Tighter scheduling timers
Shaving a hundred ms off UI callbacks...
* Cache FFI C Library namespace
* Ask MuPDF to convert pixmaps to BGR on Kobo
Fix#3949
* Mention koxtoolchain in the README
re #3972
* Kindle: Handle *all* fonts via EXT_FONT_DIR instead of bind mounts insanity
* Make black flashes in UI elements user-configurable
(All or nothing).
* Jot down some random KOA2 sysfs path
* [VirtualKeyboard] Add support for keynaviguation
Also rename the variable "layout" to "keyboard_layout" because conflict
with the layout from the focusmanager
* Make the goto dialog compatible with key naviguation
My solution is to change the order of the widget. The last one will the
virtualkeybard so it catch all the keybinding, and below it, make the
dialog "is_always_active = true" so it can receive touch event.
* Correctly show the virtual keyboard on dpad devices
* change the order to call the virtualKeyboard so it end up on top
* Handle the multi input dialog
* Support reopening the virtualKeyboard by the Press key
* add check focusmanager
* Fix https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/3797
* MultiInputDialog : Now work on non touch-device
* Set the virtualkeyboard to be a modal widget
* Fix the layout in multiinputwidget
* Fix for the various combination of
hasKeys,hasDpad,isTouchDevice
* [Focusmanager] Better handling of malformed layout
Emulate the hold touch behavior on non touch device by clicking the right key
ButtonTable: do not add vertical separator to the layout because the focus
manager can't traverse them. Add check to make disabled button non-clickable.
* [device][kindle4] add fake event to kindle4
* modify focusmanager to allow for more complex layout
The focusmanager now naviguate the layout by avoiding nil value
instead of relying on table lenght. It should be completely backward
compatible
* add Dpad naviguation to the touchmenu
* fix crash because virtualkeyboard on non touch device
the kindle4NT has no keyboard nor touch, the fix open the virtual
keyboard so koreader dont crash but it's not useable
* Enable device with keys to use the touchmenu
* Don't get stuck in reader progress statistics plugin
* [underlinecontainer] Fix and remove unused function
References #1898.
* Fix crash with keyboard navigation of onHold buttontables
Would crash when encountering a separator or when the number
of buttons in a row changes.
* Reset previous selected item on new buttontable
This should finish the work to make all globals to local variables.
That allows LuaJIT to properly compile things by interning the
references to the relevant parts (rather than looking up globals
all the time which stops a trace).
