More precise and faster spacebar slider (#593)
* Make slider speed independent from swipe distance

Swipe distances other than the default resulted in a slider that were
not easy to control.

* refactor: Add class Pointers.Sliding

It holds the states and the code needed to make the slider work.
'Pointer.sliding' is set to [null] when sliding is not in progress.

The implementation is changed not to depend on [downX] and [dx] but
instead use the pointer's [x] coordinate directly.

* Move the cursor further for faster slides

In sliding mode, compute the speed of the pointer and use it to increase
at which the cursor moves.

* refactor: Separate kind for cursor movement keys

This allows to define a key that moves the cursor more than one position
at a time.

This will be used to avoid lag during fast slider movements.

* Reduce lag when sliding quickly on the spacebar

Avoid sending key events in a loop while sliding quickly in a cursor
movement key. Key of kind Cursor_move are "multiplied", meaning a single
key event represents a movement of more than one position, reducing the
number of key events sent.
This is only for cursor move keys.

Lightweight and privacy-conscious virtual keyboard for Android.

https://github.com/Julow/Unexpected-Keyboard/assets/2310568/28f8f6fe-ac13-46f3-8c5e-d62443e16d0d

The main feature is that you can type more characters by swiping the keys towards the corners.

This application was originally designed for programmers using Termux. Now perfect for everyday use.

This application contains no ads, doesn't make any network requests and is Open Source.

Usage: to apply the symbols located in the corners of each key, slide your finger in the direction of the symbols. For example, the Settings are opened by sliding in the left down corner.
