onKeyPress does not register 'Backspace' until the TextInput is empty

[jbcullis]

Problem Description

Not sure if this is by design or not, but when you are using backspace to clear text in a TextInput, the onKeyPress event doesnt fire until the length of the TextInput value is zero.

Delete doesn't fire onKeyPress ever.

Would be handy if these worked as we use the onKeyPress on our autocomplete control in windows.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Add a TextInput to a page including onKeyPress.
2. Add console.warn(e.nativeEvent.key); to the onKeyPress
3. Add text, then delete it using backspace or delete

Expected Results

Expected result is to see onKeyPress fire on all keys.

@Yajur-Grover Can you see what the behavior is here? TextInput might be eating the event when there's text so we never fire the JS event (unless the input is empty, then the event comes through).
