Composer - make sure android keyboard opens (#4390)

* keep trying to open keyboard until it's open

* limit number of retries

* keep the original 50ms one as well

* Proper fix!

* disable autoFocus if not visible

* Reset derived state

* Revert "Reset derived state"

This reverts commit 71f57391ae78bac717282e699d1b83cbd87771eb.

* Use derived state pattern

* Rename for clarity
