Fallback BUTTON_MODE to HOME
Currently, BUTTON_MODE falls back to MENU. It is not clear which functionality relies on that. However, many joysticks currently map their "branded" button, for example, the "XBOX" key on the Xbox joystick, and "PS" key on the playstation joystick, to the BUTTON_MODE. On other joysticks, the same button is mapped to "HOME". So it would make sense to have this button to fall back to HOME in order to make the behaviour consistent. Also, remap the "XBOX" button on the Xbox controller to "BUTTON_MODE". This would give apps the chance to intercept this key and actually use it, instead of limiting it to the system. Bug: 37115804 Bug: 77803694 Test: Made a test app to dump out joystick events in response to dispatchKeyEvent. Then either returned true or false to ensure that the fallback happens. If returning true, the app has handled the event, and HOME is not dispatched. If returning false, the app does not care about the event. Therefore, HOME is generated and the phone goes to home screen (so the app gets closed). Change-Id: I023620551f52d34638303db60f8a4ca37f06d4d8
