feat(ios,android): Use Swipe Pattern to Shift Keyboards

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Changing keyboards, which is usually toggling between an English and a non-English keyboard, seems to be the slowest of all keyboard actions, each time I wish it could be faster.

Describe the solution you'd like

I thought you'd never ask :-) Use a swiping gesture to change between keyboards. By "swiping gesture" I mean a pattern could be drawn on the screen with a finger. On Samsung phones there is a screen unlocking feature where the user sets an unlock pattern by drawing it on the screen. Handwriting input is another example where the user can draw a shape on the screen.

The solution that I would like to see is one where the user could, for example, swipe from the lower-left corner of the keyboard area to the upper-right corner and the keyboard switches to the keyboard configured for that gesture. Then swipe in the opposite direction (upper-right to lower-left) to switch back.

So a user wanting to use swipes to change keyboards would go into Keyman settings, select a keyboard, and find a button to define a swiping action that will switch to the keyboard.
