Implement keyboard navigation for BookManagerv2

In ext.BookManagerv2.js, both the Table of Contents (TOC) and the metadata are referred to as "a" tags when they are actually "img" tags. When using the navigation bar, this causes the two image based buttons to be useless.

I've implemented the original keyboard navigation (left and right arrow keys) to BookManagerv2. For the metadata and Table of Contents (TOC) dropdowns, I used the up and down arrow keys. Also, I made the metadata and TOC buttons clickable.

Up and down arrow keys for metadata and Table of Contents (TOC) does not destroy scrolling up and down?

It did, but I was merely using them as placeholders. It currently uses the "i" key for metadata (To match its icon) and the "c" key for Table of Contents

Jared: Do you plan to fix https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/100195/7 at some point, or should this bug report be reassigned to the default assignee?

Oh I'm sorry! I thought the patch was merged when the task was closed during the days of GCI. Well, I don't have much time to work on this task anymore, but I'll upload one more patch. Thanks!

Hi! I tried to work on BookManagerv2 again, but the testing environment on my local machine doesn't seem to be loading the extension properly. As much as I would love to continue working on this, I really don't have the time anymore. It would be better if you reassigned the task. Sorry. Thanks for everything!

Raylton, Jared: Could you imagine being a mentor for this task in Google Code-in 2014 (finishing the existing patch)?
See https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2014-October/079264.html and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-in_2014 for more information.

I'm happy to help getting this task into Google Code-in - just need to know if somebody (plural) would mentor this!

Hi! While I would love to help mentor for this task, I don't believe that I have the skills nor the time necessary to do so. High school has eaten up most of my time. Also, I am already signed up as a competitor for GCI 2014, and I'm not sure if it would be appropriate for me to double as a mentor. I appreciate the offer, but I'm sorry to say that I can't accept.
