[PATCH v2 0/1] MR9802: winewayland: Mind KLLF_ALTGR when sending VK_CONTROL + VK_MENU.

Removing the flag for a few locales for which native keyboard layouts
don't usually have it set.

I've changed the code to do that but I'm not entirely sure it's the best way for compatibility, we'll see. It might be better to respect the host layout, but at the same time it's also possible that Windows applications have expectations about the layout key mapping for well known native layouts.

1. Examining the lparam of the WM_KEYDOWN:wparam=VK_CONTROL message reveals that the injected key is LeftControl.
2. If the LeftControl key is already pressed, the key is not injected.
3. If the RightControl key is already pressed, the VK_CONTROL WM_KEYUP message (not WM_SYSKEYUP) is injected only upon AltGr key release.
4. Examining the RAWKEYBOARD data in the WM_INPUT message, data.keyboard.MakeCode and Flags are the RightAlt value (0x38, RI_KEY_E0). The key's data.keyboard.VKey value is VK_CONTROL.
