They have not. I can‘t provide you the link, but it was long speculated that they are working on an ARM device. Also you cannot really hide activity in an open source project. It was just not officially communicated that these changes have been funded by Valve.

You cant hide the activity but you can hide the contributors and/or the funding.

Sure it's been speculated, but if there were obvious signs like commits in the fex repos by valve employees then wouldn't there have been more than speculation?

Also you cannot really hide activity in an open source project.

You could, if the person was not known to work for the company.
