Re: tvOS swipe left/right gesture support (patch enclosed)

2 out of the 3 gesture types outlined here are implemented as key presses (click and tap) https://developer.apple.com/tvos/human-interface-guidelines/remote-and-controllers/#gestures <https://developer.apple.com/tvos/human-interface-guidelines/remote-and-controllers/#gestures> 

Given the fact that key presses can’t represent swipe strength which is one of the main purposes of a swipe, and the fact that the direction key presses are already used by the tap gestures, how do you propose swipes should be exposed in SDL’s APIs?
