chips: comma and semicolon separator keys not working on Android

[grrrian]

Actual behavior:

• What is the issue? On Android, md-separator-keys are not triggered when typing comma. Chips are only generated once I tap Enter.
• What is the expected behavior? On iOS and desktop browsers, commas separate items words in chips.

Angular Versions: *

• Angular Version: 1.4.8
• Angular Material Version: 1.0.8

Additional Information:

• Browser Type: Chrome on HTC Sense 5.5
• OS: Android 4.4.2

No CodePen example needed. To view this for yourself, simply open the Custom Separator Keys section of https://material.angularjs.org/HEAD/demo/chips on an Android Device
