Input error on Chrome for Android

[flowergrass]

There is strange input behaviour when using xterm.js in Chrome for Android as seen here

It looks like previous input characters are duplicated whenever a "special" character (eg backspace, enter) is pressed. However I cannot replicate the initial bug in the video where characters replace one another.

Currently affects Sourcelair and MicroPython on Unicorn which uses xterm.js version 2.6.0. The problem does not manifest in Firefox for Android 53.0.2.

• Browser: Chrome for Android 58.0.3029.83
• OS: Android 7.1.2

Likely related to not using the input event (see #469, #265).

Note that we don't explicitly support mobile yet.

I've observed the same behavior in Android 5.1.1 browsers:

• Google Chrome 65.0.3325.109
• Firefox 59.0.2

Each time I press backspace whatever happens to be in the buffer is printed minus the last char. That output is then appended to the buffer and is repeated if I press it again.

We don't support mobile OS' currently. Track #1101 for progress on this.
