There seems to be many PRs relating to this issue, but they don't include all
platforms and for some reason lost steam. This PR again tries to make this
feature happen, and does it for all desktop platforms (x11, wayland, macos,
windows, web).
I think the best user of this feature and the reason I'm doing this is Bevy and
game engines in general. There non laggy hardware cursors with custom images are
very important. Game devs also like their PNGs so supporting platform native
cursor files is not that important, but I guess could be added too.

Lifetimes don't work nicely when dealing with multithreaded environments
in the current design of the existing winit's event handling model, so
remove it in favor of `InnerSizeWriter` fences passed to client, so they
could try to update the size.
Fixes#1387.
Overhaul the keyboard API in winit to mimic the W3C specification
to achieve better crossplatform parity. The `KeyboardInput` event
is now uses `KeyEvent` which consists of:
- `physical_key` - a cross platform way to refer to scancodes;
- `logical_key` - keysym value, which shows your key respecting the
layout;
- `text` - the text produced by this keypress;
- `location` - the location of the key on the keyboard;
- `repeat` - whether the key was produced by the repeat.
And also a `platform_specific` field which encapsulates extra
information on desktop platforms, like key without modifiers
and text with all modifiers.
The `Modifiers` were also slightly reworked as in, the information
whether the left or right modifier is pressed is now also exposed
on platforms where it could be queried reliably. The support was
also added for the web and orbital platforms finishing the API
change.
This change made the `OptionAsAlt` API on macOS redundant thus it
was removed all together.

This commit adds an `EventLoopBuilder` struct to simplify event loop
customization and providing options to it upon creation. It also
deprecates the use of `EventLoop::with_user_event` in favor of the same
method on new builder, and replaces old platforms specific extension
traits with the new ones on the `EventLoopBuilder`.
* Remove support for `stdweb`
* Expunge `stdweb`; make `web-sys` the default
* Mark this change as a breaking change
* Re-insert accidental removal of space
* Use the correct cargo feature syntax
* Re-add some `cfg` attributes
* Remove `web-sys` feature from CI
* Change web backend `event_handler` to without 'static lifetime
* Refactor web runner and fix ControlFlow::Exit not being sticky
* Impl. scaling change event for web-sys backend
* Improve `dpi` docs regarding the web backend
* Add changes to changelog
* Update features.md
The current implementation of the event loop runner has some significant
problems. It can't handle multiple events being emitted at once (for
example, when a keyboard event causes a key input, a text input, and a
modifier change.) It's also relatively easy to introduce bugs for the
different possible control flow states.
The new model separates intentionally emitting a NewEvents (poll
completed, wait completed, init) and emitting a normal event, as well as
providing a method for emitting multiple events in a single call.
