Linux: Keytap is broken on master branch as of #527

[FossPrime]

Keytap is completely broken on master as of the #527 merge

Running:

  // Type "Hello World".
  robot.typeString('echo "Hello World"');

  // Press enter.
  robot.keyTap("enter");

Yields no output whatsoever.

Solution

Keytap is now backed by unicodeTap(const unsigned value)... which does not implement any default os or Linux.
