Use format* beforeInput types across the features

[oleq]

Provide a description of the task

There are various beforeInput types that help integrate editor with native UI/OS controls (like the native WYSIWYG toolbar in iOS). There are events like

• formatBold,
• formatItalic,
• formatUnderline,
• formatStrikeThrough,
• formatSuperscript,
• formatSubscript,
• formatJustifyFull,
• formatJustifyCenter,
• formatJustifyRight,
• formatJustifyLeft,
• formatIndent,
• formatOutdent,
• formatRemove,
• formatBackColor (to be researched),
• formatFontColor (to be researched),
• formatFontName (to be researched)

that should be handled in individual features, for instance,

editor.editing.view.document.on( 'beforeinput', ( evt, data ) => {
	const domEvent = data.domEvent;

	if ( domEvent.inputType === 'formatBold' ) {
		editor.execute( 'bold' );

		evt.stop();
		data.preventDefault();
	}
} );

Even though some event types are virtual at this moment (they exist in the spec only), the integration is very cheap so we could cover them all to stay safe in the future.
