Add missing Messagease gesture: Move keyboard left and right #237

The top control button currently has height up/down, but lacks left/right positioning. This feels kinda incomplete, and is a feature Messagease has. That said, it's not something you probably need to change often, so I can understand not having it there -- I just wanted to bring it up.

If you do want to do the above, then it's worth noting that the diagonals could theoretically be used to control scale, thus giving full size and position control from one single key.

In order to do this, though, the alternate layout and settings buttons would have to be replaced.

While Messagease made long-pressing that key bring up settings (which makes sense for a key that controls size and position), I think that so long as the tap is used for the number layout, the long-pres should be for the alternate layout. Settings could instead be accessed by doing a return swipe on any of the corners of the key.

Apologies for not being able to use your feature request template -- it doesn't work in the GitHub app, oddly.
