Description

Currently the Volume Up and Down events are in DroidGap.java. While this is fine for the general use case, it would be better if there was a utility class that handled these events. This would also allow us to implement the GamePad API for the Google TV events, because Google in their infinite wisdom chose to re-implement this instead of using the standard keyCodes for Up, Down, Left and Right.

This should fix existing bugs on Google TV, as well as make the code neater. It also addresses CB-417.
