Suyuan Chang cfad43b80d macOS: Fix bug that entry cannot press and hold a key to input accented character.
There're two issues in GdkQuartzView's NSTextInputClient implementation
causes this bug.

1. The -(NSRange)selectedRange should not return [NSNotFound, 0] if
   there's no selection. The accented character window will not show
   if returned NSRange's location is NSNotFound. Instead of that, the
   NSRange's location should be the caret position in the text input
   buffer.

2. The accented character window will invoke
   -(void)insertText:replacementRange: with non-empty replacement
   range, to replace non-accented character with accented character
   after user select it from accented character window. This case is
   not implemented in original code. Here I use another gobject data
   to pass the information to input module and convert it into
   'delete-surrounding' event.

Besides these, there's another bug cause gtk_im_context_filter_keypress()
return wrong value while user press and hold a key. When user press
and hold a key, the accented character window will consume the
repeating key down event. Is this case, gtk_im_context_filter_keypress()
should return TRUE, indicate the key press is filtered by input
method module. But it will return FALSE because
gtk_im_context_filter_keypress() assume that every key press event
will generate some text from input method module.

Fixes #1618

*** Introduction

This is a GTK+ input method which allows text entry via the multi-press method, 
as on a mobile phone. When this has been installed, you can choose the "Multipress" 
menu item from the "Input Methods" submenu when right-clicking in a GTK+ text entry 
area. 

For instance:
- press a to get a, then wait 1 second for the character to be accepted.
or
- press dd to get e, then wait 1 second for the character to be accepted.
or
- press ad to get ad, then wait 1 second for the d character to be accepted.


*** Configuration

Edit the im-multipress.conf to define the keypresses needed to input particular characters.
This file is in GKeyFile-format, and contains explanatory comments.


*** Per-widget deactivation

When the input method is active (either by choosing it from the context menu, or 
by defining the default language as "*" in immultipress.c), the multipress 
behaviour can be turned off for individual widgets, like so:

  g_object_set_data(G_OBJECT(yourwidget), "multipress-passthrough-flag", GINT_TO_POINTER(1));


For a C++ gtkmm project, you could make a convenience function to do this. For instance:

  void multipress_deactivate(Gtk::Widget& widget)
  {
    static const Glib::Quark quark ("multipress-passthrough-flag");
    widget.set_data(quark, GINT_TO_POINTER(1));
  }
