> This PR adds code to ensure that KeyCodeCombinations match KeyEvents as 
> expected by more accurately mapping from a Mac key code to a Java key code 
> based on the user’s active keyboard layout (the existing code assumes a US 
> QWERTY layout). The new code first identifies a set of Mac keys which can 
> produce different characters based on the user’s keyboard layout. A Mac key 
> code outside that area is processed exactly as before. For a key inside the 
> layout-sensitive area the code calls UCKeyTranslate to translate the key to 
> an unshifted ASCII character based on the active keyboard and uses that to 
> determine the Java key code.

> When performing the reverse mapping for the Robot the code first uses the old 
> QWERTY mapping to find a candidate key. If it lies in the layout-sensitive 
> area the code then scans the entire area calling UCKeyTranslate until it 
> finds a match. If the key lies outside the layout-sensitive area it’s 
> processed exactly as before.
