Scan for pause and configuration keys, and if this is a space view, also scan for secondary flight controls. Specifically: * Scan for the pause button (COPY) and if it's pressed, pause the game and process any configuration key presses until the game is unpaused (DELETE) * If this is a space view, scan for secondary flight keys and update the relevant bytes in the key logger
