Subject: [PATCH] Enhance Big Picture Mode OSK and webview input support

Adds native input event injection for webviews via IPC, improves the on-screen keyboard (OSK) UI with a blinking cursor and label, and enables seamless text entry into webview input fields. Also refines virtual cursor click handling for better compatibility with complex sites and video players.
