[#109] Keyboard often not working on Android

The issue is exactly what the title says. If I tap on the address bar or try to provide input to a page (e.g. the Kennedy search engine), often the keyboard will not actually enter any text, and I have to switch to the default keyboard and back again, or to Florisboard and back again (depending on which I'm using).

This issue is present with all keyboards I have tried, including the built-in AOSP keyboard. However, copy and paste in the context menu has no issues.

I am running Graphene OS 2025052000 on a Pixel 8.

I've only ever tested with regular stock Android, and Samsung's variant of Android, both of which have had no issues with the system keyboard. I haven't tried with 3rd party keyboards, though. I'll make a note to do that at some point.

The keyboard behavior is mostly handled by SDL, but it's conceivable there is some glitch there when it comes to input handling and custom keyboards.

@skyjake It could also be related to GrapheneOS, in which case I would be happy to do any testing you may have for this bug.
