Set default state of the on-screen keyboard on the login screen

Set the default state of the on-screen keyboard accessibility feature on the login screen.

If this policy is set to true, the on-screen keyboard will be enabled when the login screen is shown.

If this policy is set to false, the on-screen keyboard will be disabled when the login screen is shown.

If you set this policy, users can temporarily override it by enabling or disabling the on-screen keyboard. However, the user's choice is not persistent and the default is restored whenever the login screen is shown anew or the user remains idle on the login screen for a minute.

If this policy is left unset, the on-screen keyboard is disabled when the login screen is first shown. Users can enable or disable the on-screen keyboard any time and its status on the login screen is persisted between users.
