To allow seamless copy-paste, on Ctrl+v, a SET_CLIPBOARD request is
performed before injecting Ctrl+v.
But when HID keyboard is enabled, the Ctrl+v injection is not sent on
the same channel as the clipboard request, so they are not serialized,
and may occur in any order. If Ctrl+v happens to be injected before the
new clipboard content is set, then the old content is pasted instead,
which is incorrect.
To minimize the probability of occurrence of the wrong order, a delay of
2 milliseconds was added before injecting Ctrl+v. Then 5ms. But even
with 5ms, the wrong behavior sometimes happens.
To handle it properly, add an acknowledgement mechanism, so that Ctrl+v
is injected over AOA only after the SET_CLIPBOARD request has been
performed and acknowledged by the server.

When Ctrl+v is pressed, a control is sent to the device to set the
device clipboard before injecting Ctrl+v.
With the InputManager method, it is guaranteed that the device
synchronization is executed before handling Ctrl+v, since the commands
are executed on the device in sequence.
However, HID are injected from the computer, so there is no such
guarantee. As a consequence, on Android, Ctrl+v triggers a paste with
the old clipboard content.
To workaround the issue, wait a bit (2 milliseconds) from the AOA
thread before injecting the event, to leave enough time for the
clipboard to be set before injecting Ctrl+v.
