Description

As the title says, only the main active state receives a call to onFocus and onFocusLost, and any open substates of that state don't get this function called.

Should be a quick fix, will submit a PR in a moment.

Research direction

Locate FlxSubState and the focus handling for the main active state. Compare how onFocus and onFocusLost are dispatched, then verify that open substates receive the same callbacks when focus changes; the issue is done when both substate callbacks are invoked as expected.
