Events that expect the current object to be the focus object doesn't work properly when the object gained focus do to a focusRedirect property of another object

Steps to reproduce:

Create a new global plugin in the scratchpad directory and copy the following code in to it.

import copy
import globalPluginHandler
import NVDAObjects
class FocusRedirectTest(NVDAObjects.NVDAObject):
    def _get_focusRedirect(self):
        return(copy.copy(self))

class GlobalPlugin(globalPluginHandler.GlobalPlugin):
    def chooseNVDAObjectOverlayClasses(self, obj, clsList):
        clsList.insert(0, FocusRedirectTest)

Make sure that "Enable loading custom code from Developer Scratchpad directory" is turned on, and then restart NVDA to make the add-on take effect. Then go to for example the desktop and press control + space to select or unselect a list item

Actual behavior:

speech and braille reports nothing. I think this happens because api.getFocusObject() isn't the object that fired the event, e.g obj is api.getFocusObject() returns False, but obj == api.getFocusObject() returns True. pr #16473 was supposed to fix this, but the excel issue detailed in that is still present, and caused by the same problem.

Expected behavior:

The changed state should be reported as normal.
