Fix shortcuts when the cursor is outside the canvas
This patch needs testing on Windows, OSX and all the variations of DE on Linux! Before today the focus was automatically transferred to the canvas when the cursor was hovering over it. That caused all input boxes in the dockers work only when you keep the cursor over them. That was hardly convenient. Now the focus can be transferred in a semi-automatic way. * if you move the cursor outside the canvas without clicking anywhere the focus is kept on the canvas and you can still use the shortcuts * if you click in any input box outside the canvas, the focus will be transferred to that input box. Therefore the shortcuts will not work. * to return input focus to the canvas you should do one of the following: - just start a stroke on it - keep your cursor *moving* over the canvas for 2 seconds and the focus will be transferred automatically. "Moving" condition is needed for a case when you drop your mouse or a stylus in a fixed position on a canvas and move your hands to the keyboard to fill in input boxes in the dockers. If you do this "dropping" quick enough (< 2 sec), the focus will be kept on your input box :) To implement such behavior I had to create a special class KisTimedSignalThreshold which uses almost the same interface as KisSignalsCompressor, but does what we need: emit the signal if the flow of events is strong enough.
