The FieldChar and the "Emoji" fields support a "onchange_on_keydown" attribute
that allow triggering the onchange event when the user types into the field.
(Instead of having to wait for a blur event).
This is especially useful, for example, in the social module to refresh the
post preview when the user is typing his message.
The current strategy to avoid spamming this onchange event was to throttle the
method to trigger it at most once every second.
However, triggering it every second could still be problematic in terms of
performances and could cause loading issues (e.g: if you have a large GIF in
your post preview)
To try to mitigate this issue, we changed the strategy from throttle to
debounce and changed the delay to two seconds.
Meaning the onchange will be triggered 2 seconds after the user is done typing,
which still gives a nice "live update" effect without triggering the onchange
too much.
