VR keyboard controller bridge: no traffic while idle

The relay no longer enables the Runtime domain on systemui (bindings work
without it; it streamed the page's console and context events). Full-rate
frames only while a tip is within 10 cm of the keyboard or a trigger is
pulled (not for a laser resting on it); idle frames every 1 s instead of
250 ms. Nothing while the keyboard is hidden.
