This functions converts a java.awt.event.KeyEvent Virtual Key (VK) code to a GLFW key code.
/**
* All the keys listed in java.awt.event are listed here. If there
* is no GLFW equivalent the function returns -2. Otherwise it returns
* the GLFW code. -1 is reserved for the GLFW's unknown code.
*
* /!\ 1. java.awt.event.KeyEvent does not make any difference between left and right keys for:
* - shift,
* - control,
* - alt.
* So we had to decide, and this function return the code of the right one.
*
* /!\ 2. java.awt.event.KeyEvent takes into account your keyboard layout.
* So if your keyboard is french, and you type "A", GLFW will say that it's Q,
* whereas KeyEvent's VKs will say that it's "A". You have to keep that in mind
* when you convert a KeyEvent's VK to a GLFW key.
* This function will return GLFW_KEY_A with the KeyEvent's key is VK_A.
*
* Version 1.0
* Future updates here: https://gist.github.com/N3ROO/8f3bc1574f9fee318b3b7a879d1b26b4
*
* @param code java.awt.event.KeyEvent VK code
* @return -2 not supported, otherwise it returns the GLFW code.
