Problem:
- main.ts registered inspector with window.addEventListener
- keyboardInput.ts used document.onkeydown which replaces event handler
- This caused the inspector key binding to be overridden
Solution:
- Moved inspector 'i' key handling into KeyboardInput class
- Removed duplicate setupInspector() method from main.ts
- Inspector now opens correctly when 'i' is pressed
Changes:
- src/keyboardInput.ts: Added 'i' key case to open Babylon Inspector
- src/main.ts: Removed setupInspector() method (no longer needed)
