P5.js: keyPressed() only works once per key (for certain keys) in Chrome, keyReleased() not at all

[rruubboott]

Nature of issue?

• [x] Found a bug

Most appropriate sub-area of p5.js?

• [x] Events

Which platform were you using when you encountered this?

• [x] Desktop/Laptop

Details about the bug:

• p5.js version:
  v0.7.3
• Web browser and version:
  72.0.3626.119
• Operating System:
  macOS mojave
• Steps to reproduce this:
  

keyPressed() will fire once for any of the arrow keys, then never again. Many other keys (most letters, for instance) are fine - but some letters will only fire once (e,a,c - for example). This does not happen in editor.p5js.org nor on Opera. Just Chrome....

let counter = 0;

function setup() {
createCanvas(800,800);
}

function draw() {
// put drawing code here
}

function keyPressed(){
counter++;
console.log(counter);
}

I feel this is the same as #3450 and #3193, the solution is being discussed there atm.

@ruairimurphy thanks for filing this issue, this is a really helpful write up!

@sanketsingh24 this issue looks different than #3193 as it doesn't rely on having multiple sketches to reproduce the bug and #3450 hasn't been investigated enough to know if its a bug in the library or just mistakes in the examples. i'd like to keep this issue open and separate (but its good to have them all linked together).
