Reaper by default does not give plugin UIs keyboard focus, which makes it super easy to press backspace and have it delete the plugin 😡

It is the same issue as dealt in DISTRHO/Cardinal#304
We need the same hacks here too, likely best pushed as direct DPF functionality.

the workaround I found that works the best is to force keyboard focus to the plugin UI whenever a user clicks on it.
it is super ugly, but nothing else I tried was working proper.
