bug: Keyboard input passthrough issue in VM control window, on IME switch #116

Description

@foresee-io

With "transmit keyboard hot keys" enabled:

Input method switching shortcuts (e.g., Windows+Space, Left Alt+Shift) are simultaneously processed by both the host and the guest VM, because the VM control window does not go through the host IME layer.

When a host input method (e.g., Chinese Pinyin) is active, keystrokes are not transparently forwarded to the VM; instead, they are intercepted by the host IME for candidate selection/composition.

Expected behavior: With the transmit-hotkeys option on, all keyboard input (including IME-related shortcuts and raw key events) should be passed exclusively to the guest VM, bypassing host IME processing.
