Description
## Bevy version and features
`0.19.1`, `main`
## What you did
1. Press any keyboard button.
1. Switch to a keyboard layout where that `KeyCode` maps to a different `Key`.
1. Release the button.
## What went wrong
The `Key` that was originally pressed is never normally released. Due to #25483, it is not even released when the window loses focus.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the three-step sequence in Bevy 0.19.1 or main: press a key, switch to a layout with a different Key mapping, and release it. Trace the keyboard event handling for the original Key and verify that the pressed Key is released after the layout change, including the focus-loss behavior described in #25483.
