[win32] Apple remote key repeat count

[yyoyo]

Sometime, the apple remote send two events at the same time. Adding a repeat count in the input provider can prevent this.

Step to reproduce:
1. Launch Elisa and stay on the main menu
2. Press the right key of the remote control

Excepted result : When you press one time, the next item is selected all the time
Unexpected result : Sometime, when you press the key, the selection go to the second item.

The same occurs running on linux too with a MCE remote. Have to be very careful how long you leave the button depressed in order for only one event to be sent.

It is not possible to handle the apple remote under windows Vista.
The driver installed by bootcamp does not provide access to the volume key. The only way to handle them is to change the driver, but it's working only under windows XP.

I close the bug, a blueprint has been created : https://blueprints.launchpad.net/elisa/+spec/apple-remote-control

This is a general problem on linux, it seems that in most lirc configuration more that one event is generated for a little bit to long keypress. I made a quick fix for this, which can be found at http://kenny-x.student.utwente.nl/elisa/lirc_input.py it might not be entirely a correct implementation, but it works.
