completes keyboard implementation (not tested on all browsers)

With these patches I'm really just guessing as to the desired style, and am basing my guessing on the previously existing implementation. This implementation might be a little hard to comprehend? It might err on the side of tightness over clarity.
Shall we create a keycode map so that we don't hard code the keys? Also, I notice a switch expression is used in the date picker... we will probably want to be consistent across plugins.

Also note I think we may want a 'paging' option similar to stepping, that describes the amount to 'page' the slider thumb when the user presses pageup/dwn. I've captured this desire in a partially implemented 'pageStep' function in patch2.

Note I committed the first patch, but feel I should wait for feedback on the second.

Created ticket:3096 for paging (page/up/down option).


A minimal patch that fixes arrow interaction.
