[MCPE-6998] When tapping the leftmost box in hotbar while walking forward, you walk backwards-left a bit.

What I expected was:
Just walk forward normally when tapping leftmost box in hotbar when walking forward
What happened was:
I walked backwards-left for a fraction of a second before resuming normal walking.

Confirmed on Samsung Galaxy S4 android 4.4.2 running MCPE 0.10.5 in n both creative and survival modes. Please update the affected versions.

Pressing the 1st (leftmost) hotbar slot while holding forward on the D-pad registers as pressing backwards on the D-pad when it should not have any effects. Pressing other hotbar slots does nothing, as expected.

Releasing forward while still holding the first hotbar slot causes the player to move backwards until the 1st hotbar slot is released.

Holding other directions or jump and pressing any hotbar slots (including the 1st one) does nothing, as expected.

This is a D-pad scaling issue. It will be redone in the future.
