Summary: Keyboard events ignore shift/capslock under Windows

Initial Comment:
When retrieving the keyboard event via ALLEGRO_EVENT, and checking the pressed keycode via unichar field of the keyboard event, the retrieved character is unaffected by shift/caps lock keys as it should be. This does not happen under Linux: when shift is pressed, for example, you get the capital version of whatever key you have pressed.

I couldn't verify this independently via ex_keyboard_events as examples, so far, have refused to run for me...
