We do this by implementing the following fixes:
- The Key_Plus is assigned to a proper map entry index now which is 0x4e
both on the keypad and non-keypad keys.
- Shift+Q now prints out "Q" properly on scan code set 2.
- Key BackSlash (or Pipe on shift key being pressed down) is now working
properly as well.
- Key_Pipe (which is "|" for en-US layout) is now working in scan code
set 2.
- Numpad keys as well as the decimal separator key are working again.
This scan code set is more advanced than the basic scan code set 1, and
is required to be supported for some bare metal hardware that might not
properly enable the PS2 first port translation in the i8042 controller.
LibWeb can now also generate bindings for keyboard events like the Pause
key, as well as other function keys (such as Right Alt, etc).
The logic for handling scan code sets is implemented by the PS2 keyboard
driver and is abstracted from the main HID KeyboardDevice code which
only handles "standard" KeyEvent(s).

To ensure actual PS2 code is not tied to the i8042 code, we make them
separated in the following ways:
- PS2KeyboardDevice and PS2MouseDevice classes are no longer inheriting
from the IRQHandler class. Instead we have specific IRQHandler derived
class for the i8042 controller implementation, which is used to ensure
that we don't end up mixing PS2 code with low-level interrupt handling
functionality. In the future this means that we could add a driver for
other PS2 controllers that might have only one interrupt handler but
multiple PS2 devices are attached, therefore, making it easier to put
the right propagation flow from the controller driver all the way to
the HID core code.
- A simple abstraction layer is added between the PS2 command set which
devices could use and the actual implementation low-level commands.
This means that the code in PS2MouseDevice and PS2KeyboardDevice
classes is no longer tied to i8042 implementation-specific commands,
so now these objects could send PS2 commands to their PS2 controller
and get a PS2Response which abstracts the given response too.
