Applied my re-revised patch #1487149 ("Simplified keyboard repeat"), with

Fingolfin's blessings. Keyboard repeat is now handled by the event manager,
rather than by individual engines.

Since this can cause problems with some engines (see the AGI engine), the extra
"key down" events are marked as "synthetic", so that they can be ignored if
necessary.
