Fix the `character` field of the `RawKeyEvent` to hold correct data on non-Android platforms. (#65667)

This fixes a problem where the character field of the RawKeyEvent was not being set at all for non-Android platforms.

I also updated the key maps, and corrected a problem with the Windows key map where the backquote character wasn't correctly mapped.
