Need ability to stop speech through touch only

Project Member Reported by lpalmaro@chromium.org, Oct 16 2017

Issue description

OS: Chrome

We need a way to pause speech on Chrome OS (whether Chromebooks or CFM devices), through a touch gesture. This should serve as the touch equivalent to pressing Ctrl to silence speech through the keyboard. We could consider a 2 finger tap here, as long as it's a quick tap and doesn't conflict with the two finger longer press to disable Chromevox on CFM devices. Happy to brainstorm other gestures, though!

Map two finger tap to programmatic gesture

ChromeVox handles keys before the touch exploration event handler, so
dispatching raw control keys won't work.

Map the gesture to stop speech similarly to the way we do now for other
gestures.

Stop speech is mapped to 2 finger tap.
