Pass through key release events when IM is off

Currently the m17nlib module drops all key release events, even if set to 'off'.  This causes unexpected problems with a number of programs and web sites, here is a test case:

I would suggest that - at minimum - key release events should be passed through when the IM is 'off', as in the attached patch.

Thanks,
Matt

Thanks for pointing out this long-lived stupid bug.  Fixed in trunk and I'll release uim 1.7.3 before long.
