bug: swipe right on the left side of the screen triggers onKey(KEY_ESC)

I noticed this with my app in simulator (fr955, SDK 8.1.1), and then I checked it with the Input sample and it also reproduces it, so it's clearly a bug both in the simulator and even on real devices (tested on real fr965). A similar bug was already reported 4 years ago: https://forums.garmin.com/developer/connect-iq/i/bug-reports/vivoactive-4s-swipe-identified-as-a-key-pressed

To reproduce:

- run the Input sample from the SDK on fr955 in the simulator.

- swipe right in a way that you touch in the middle or the right side of the screen => correctly, only swipe event is triggered

- swipe right touching in the left side of the screen => onKey(KEY_ESC) is triggered (It's not clear when this happens, in the Input sample it looks like sometimes this only happens every 2nd time you swipe on the left side of the screen)

    This created a long and winding discussion from development, but the conclusion was that this is by design and can not be changed as it is fundamental to the design of the virtual machine. If you notice the simulator not behaving the same as a real device then that is a bug that can be addressed.

    Hi Richard,

    I’m more concerned about not being able to disable the right swipe on a real device, as you can with other gestures by just returning true. Water running across the watch face triggers this gesture which negatively affects app operation.
