Found in automation when typing two uppercase letters, but reproduced manually.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open an app with a keyboard (such as Browser)
2. Make sure caps lock is off
3. Quickly tap [shift], [letter], [shift]

Expected:
Caps lock is not enabled

Actual:
Caps lock is enabled

I also noticed that it's possible to type several uppercase letters after tapping shift, if you're fast enough.
This is old but a valid bug.

This bug is trivial to implement with the current business logic handling. We can simply remove doubleTapTimers of every other targets when a target is activated, in activeTargetManager. Rudy, would you like to implement this?

Patch V1

Given the fact we actually never remove any DOM element for now, it make sense to remove the WeakMap instance. But I think we should flatten the information with 

this.doubleTapTimer
this.doubleTapPreviousTarget

So we don't create a new dict, which can be abused in the future code additions.

Alternatively, bringing back the WeakMap is actually cleaner in terms of code pattern (although redundant).
