Add a way to declare the default keymap #197

Open crawfxrd opened 1 year ago

Replace hard-coding default.c with a KEYMAP variable or something that defines the default layout to use.

System76 laptop keyboards are changing their layouts starting with RPL. They use the same matrix layout as 15in_102, but may have different key layouts. For example, "Display Toggle" being replaced by "Mic Mute" on Fn layer of F2.

Alternatively, keyboards in System76 EC gets renamed (stop using "size and number of keys" as unique names) so every potential keyboard we can ever have does have a default.c. Then keyboard-configurator would only need to update the keyboard used.

default.json is already per-laptop rather than per-"keyboard" in the Configurator, so it wouldn't be hard to update layouts.py to accommodate this.
