Depends on minetest/irrlicht#269.
Since #14058, rendering is paused on Android when the app is paused. However, it is also paused when the app is merely "unfocused" (e.g. a text input dialog is open). This is a problem because:
The app might still be partially visible when it is "unfocused".
It seems to result in bugs with text input: Android: Add selection dialog (drop down/combo box) #13814 (review). I have no idea why since the paused rendering shouldn't affect event handling, but this PR seems to fix the issue.
To do
This PR is a Ready for Review.
How to test
Verify that rendering still happens while the text input dialog is open.
Verify that the issue described in #13814 (review) is fixed.
