Masayuki Nakano 0f39d7eda7 Bug 1266437 - Drop "OS" modifier r=smaug,m_kato,karlt,Gijs
On Windows, Windows logo key was mapped to "OS" modifier, and on Linux,
it's same and the key is called "Super" and "Hyper".  That conformed to the
older UI Events spec.

However, UI Events declares that they should be mapped to "Meta" now and Chrome
handles it as the spec in Windows and Linux.  Therefore, we should align the
behavior to them.

Note that we've treated the legacy "Meta" modifier on Linux as DOM "Meta"
modifier state, and we'll keep this as-is because in Sun/Solaris keyboard
layout, they keys are mapped to the legacy "Meta".

Finally, the following check only `IsMeta()` but not `IsOS()`.  I think that
they should've checked `IsOS()` too.  Therefore, they will behave differently
in Windows and Linux.
