Description

### Describe the bug
First reported on the Community Forum [Here ](https://community.software.sil.org/t/using-keyman-15-0-74-for-typing-burmese/7016)

When typing in Trados characters appears to be randomly removed or scrambled. It is most likely a cluster issue, when backspace is sent to the TRADOS app it is not deleting the last code point but rather a cluster.

### Reproduce the bug

In the SDL TRADOS studio app typing "tvSsif":
t v Shift+s s i f
Received: "လျှင်"
Expected: "အလျှင်"

Note the output is as expected after "tvS"
Recieved: အလှ
Expected: အလှ

When the next s is typed the inital Glyph gets removed
Recieved:လျှ
Expected:အလျှ
