We dispatch keyboard events to the different overlays depending on their attachment order and if they're listening for keyboard events. This works fine for the most part, but can lead to unexpected behavior where an overlay only cares about one type of event which ends up blocking the event from reaching other overlays. These changes add an `eventPredicate` option that overlay can use to allow some events to pass through.
Fixes that the tooltip was blocking keyboard events to other overlays, even if it doesn't care about them. Fixes angular#32760.
