Input chords

The InputChord type allows you to trigger an action when multiple keys are pressed at the same time:

Action {    inputs: InputChord {        timeout: 500        chords: [            ActionInput {                sourceDevice: keyboardDevice                buttons: [Qt.Key_Q]            },            ActionInput {                sourceDevice: keyboardDevice                buttons: [Qt.Key_W]            },            ActionInput {                sourceDevice: keyboardDevice                buttons: [Qt.Key_E]            }        ]    }    onActiveChanged: {        console.log("changed: ", active);    }}

The onActiveChanged handler will be called when Q, W, and E keys are pressed within 500 milliseconds and held together.
