[Ohrrpgce] SVN: james/10250 Add optional right-drag scrolling support to plankmenus, and use it for

[Ralph Versteegen]

Actually, maybe what you're seeing are actually multitouch gestures. I had
assumed they were only enabled if AppUsesMultitouch=y is set in the .cfg
file, but if you look at DemoGLSurfaceView_nativeMotionEvent in
src/video/android/SDL_androidinput.c, it appears they are always enabled
and send normal scancodes, and AppUsesMultitouch only makes them
additionally send joystick and SDL 1.3/2 multitouch events.

The four multitouch gestures send these scancodes:
static int multitouchGestureKeycode[MAX_MULTITOUCH_GESTURES] = {
SDL_KEY(SDL_KEY_VAL(SDL_ANDROID_SCREENKB_KEYCODE_6)),
SDL_KEY(SDL_KEY_VAL(SDL_ANDROID_SCREENKB_KEYCODE_7)),
SDL_KEY(SDL_KEY_VAL(SDL_ANDROID_SCREENKB_KEYCODE_8)),
SDL_KEY(SDL_KEY_VAL(SDL_ANDROID_SCREENKB_KEYCODE_9))
};
