KeyboardVariant enum
Which keyboard a field asked for — what a platform draws, not only how tall it is.
Two facts wear one name here, and they are genuinely separate. The height differs by platform: an iPhone gives a keypad 27–45 fewer points than a QWERTY, an iPad gives every type the same keyboard, and Gboard swaps the layout without moving the height at all. The picture differs everywhere — a number pad looks nothing like a letter keyboard on any device. So a variant always changes what is drawn, and changes the height only where the device has a measurement saying it should.
Here rather than beside the guest that reads it, for the reason
KeyboardMode and ScreenOrientation are: this is a fact about the
device, and the code that maps a TextInputType onto it must not have to
import Flutter.
