Handling of input from on-screen keyboard about xportal HOT 4 CLOSED

Actually its more to VHVR bug, hence i added an option which fix this issue (brandonmousseau/vhvr-mod@f8d9680) , while its not released yet, it should works with XPortal and other stuff that have compatibility issue with automatically show keyboard

(note that it needs to be false to make the XPortal usable, but it still defaults on true)

XPortal reacts to an Enter keypress to "submit" the portal configuration window. So the normal normal behaviour is that you type in the portal name and then press Enter, which submits your changes and closes the window. This is a key behaviour to intuitive UI interaction IMO, and should not be changed.

We can tackle this if it were possible for XPortal to detect that an on-screen keyboard is being used, but I presume the keyboard exists outside of the Valheim instance. The game is simply being sent keypresses as though they came from a hardware keyboard.

An alternative approach could be to introduce a config option which disables "submit on enter", so that the user can choose how the UI behaves.

XPortal could also use BepInEx functionality (Chainloader.PluginInfos) to detect if VHVR is loaded and change the behaviour based on that. This might introduce new challenges though, as perhaps not all VR users use or rely on an on-screen keyboard. Additionally, it wouldn't offer a fix for other mods which also use an on-screen keyboard.
