Orkuncakilkaya 885943e73f fix(cocoa): the Delete key reports Key.Backspace (8) 
AppKit gives kVK_Delete (51) the character NSDeleteCharacter, 127, which is
what both ev_keyval (the held-key set) and win_poll (the per-frame key)
received, so Key.Backspace, which folds to 8, never matched. Both now map key
code 51 to 8.

bump: patch type: fix Backspace fires on macOS — the Delete key reports Key.Backspace (8).

AppKit gives the key marked delete (kVK_Delete, 51) the character NSDeleteCharacter, 127, which is what both the held-key set and the per-frame key received, so Key.Backspace never matched. cocoa.ll maps key code 51 to 8 in both.
