Add support for iso-8859-16 in keyboard generator #329

Closed adiee5 closed 5 months ago

adiee5 commented 5 months ago

This updates the keyboard generation script, so that layouts, that are normally expected to insert letters provided by iso-8859-16, are now capable of inputing iso-8859-16 specific characters. This obviously makes it easier to input iso 16 characters. A side effect of this is that those keyboard layouts produce non-sensical characters on different ISO encodings where the iso-16 specific symbols don't exist (i think it's really not harmful in any way)

An example showing a generated layout in action: j as you can see, newly generated layout works. However, I'm not sure if my modification of the script is elegant enough, so i guess you could look at it.

I believe layouts that want to generate these codes/glyphs would need to be (re)generated, as this modified script isn't part of the make build process

yeah, i didn't include the recompiled binary blobs in the commit, that's true
