/**
 * A hub that manages how key events are dispatched to various Flutter key
 * responders, and propagates it to the superclass if the Flutter key responders
 * do not handle it.
 *
 * This class manages one or more primary responders, as well as zero or more
 * secondary responders.
 *
 * An event that is received by |handlePresses| is first dispatched to *all*
 * primary responders. Each primary responder responds *asynchronously* with a
 * boolean, indicating whether it handles the event.
 *
 * An event that is not handled by any primary responders is then passed to to
 * the first secondary responder (in the chronological order of addition),
 * which responds *synchronously* with a boolean, indicating whether it handles
 * the event. If not, the event is passed to the next secondary responder, and
 * so on.
 *
 * The event is then handed back to the |completeCallback| from the original
 * call to |handlePresses| so that it can respond synchronously to the OS if the
 * event was not handled by the responders. The |completeCallback| is called on
 * the platform thread because the platform thread is blocked by a nested event
 * loop while the response from the framework is being collected, and it needs
 * to be called on the platform thread to unblock the thread by exiting the
 * nested event loop.
 *
 * Preventing primary responders from receiving events is not supported, because
 * in reality this class only supports two hardcoded responders
 * (FlutterChannelKeyResponder and FlutterEmbedderKeyResponder), where the only purpose
 * of supporting two is to maintain the legacy channel API during the
 * deprecation window, after which the channel responder should be removed, and
 * only one primary responder will exist.
