Long press on Pixelbook home key doesn't trigger Assistant

Reported by tweenk...@gmail.com, Aug 26

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 10991.0.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/70.0.3524.2 Safari/537.36
Platform: 10991.0.0 (Official Build) dev-channel eve

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Press and hold the home key on a Pixelbook (the one with circle around a dot)

What is the expected behavior?
Assistant starts listening, like it does on a phone when you press and hold the home button or when you touch and hold the onscreen home button

What went wrong?
Nothing happens, it only opens and closes the app tray

Did this work before? N/A

The home key is also a "meta" key that's part of many keyboard shortcuts, e.g. lock screen, task manager etc. It will break the current keyboard shortcuts if we overload the long press to trigger Assistant.
Since there is a dedicated Assistant key on the Pixelbook, and this would conflict with existing features, I think this can be closed.
