Apple keyboard shortcuts not captured in fullscreen mode without mouse-capture enabled #3668

Description

@Lillecarl

Certain keycombinations are not working, for example meta(command)+arrow keys. I noticed this because meta+arrow keys is the default (and sane) combination for quick-tiling windows within KDE.

How to reproduce

Start a VM, enter full-screen mode, press command+arrow keys

Expected functionality

Keys presses are passed into the VM

Current functionality

You hear an Apple "notification bong" that your operation is invalid.

There's a link below with quite a few default Apple keybinds which can't seem to be unbound by me as an end user, and the command+arrow keys supposedly moves the cursor within an input field, which there are none of in the UTM full screen window, see the following Apple support link: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201236

I'm quite certain this can be overridden as this was functioning under VirtualBox, though I wouldn't know where to begin.

OT: Great job building UTM, QEMU > VirtualBox any day! 😄
