Mobile: improve the chat experience (#146)

* Some chat input dialog fixes.

- If getAndroidChatOpen() is true then input dialog is created by chat.
- Hide touchscreengui when chat input dialog is open.

* Check input dialog owner in config registration, just in case

* Make sure there is no menu active before showing touchscreengui

* Reset input dialog owner when reading value
