[PD] [key], [keyup] and operating system key reapat

[Sebastian Shader]

On MacOS the key repeat should be respecting the system preference now after switching to tcl/tk 8.6.12 (see discussion here: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/1306)note that key ons are repeated without corresponding key offs, until the key is released (if key repeats are enabled in the system preferences)

Hi list,

I can't seem to get my head around different behavior of the [key] and
[keyup] objects on different OSes and even within the same OS. I
discovered that for depressed keys after an initial delay 
-Pd on Debian will report repeated key ups and downs,
-Pd on Windows does not,
-Pd on OS X may or may not.
Could a few of us test this quickly and report their findings here
maybe?

Thanks!
Peter
