Sometimes (e.g. in ABC Extended keyboard layout), Option + certain keys gives modifier letters, even with
NSEvent.charactersIgnoringModifiers
For example, ⌥+6 gives U+02C6 "MODIFIER LETTER CIRCUMFLEX ACCENT"
Thus in these keyboard layouts, shortcuts like ⌥+6 will never work with Rime.
This proposal try to use raw key code before defaulting to unrecognized symbols, so that although Rime doesn't recognize U+02C6 as a key char, but instead, we use the key code of 6 for processing.
Testing: It works for the stated purpose, ⌥+6 works in
ABC - Extended
keyboard layout.
