If you start typing into a form field, autocomplete filtering will be one
character behind what you've typed.
For example, suppose you have the following autocomplete possibilities for a
form field:
camp
cell
center
Autocomplete will not appear when you just type 'c'. If you enter 'ce', all 3
possibilities will be shown. If you type 'cel', "cell" and "center" will be shown.

Use the "input" event for notifying the AutoCompleteController to update the
autocomplete list. Using keydown is pretty fragile since you're depending on
your event firing after editor's keydown listener. I think input will also
correctly account for pasting into the input field.
