kmk.consts: rename UnicodeModes => UnicodeMode
This brings this naming into consistency with both fellow consts in the
same file (ex. LeaderMode is singular) as well as the variables in which
the consts are usually used (usually a `Firmware.unicode_mode` attribute
in a keymap).

# Keymap
Keymaps in KMK are simple Python class objects with various attributes assigned
(some by default, however all are overridable).
The basics of what you'll need to get started are:
- Import the `Firmware` object for your keyboard from `kmk.boards` (or, if
handwiring your keyboard, import `Firmware` from the appropriate MCU for your
board from `kmk.mcus`. See `hardware.md` for the list of supported boards and
map this to the correct Python module under either of those paths.
- Add a file to `user_keymaps/your_username` called whatever you'd like
- Assign a `Firmware` instance to a variable (ex. `keyboard = Firmware()` - note
the parentheses)
- Make sure this `Firmware` instance is actually run at the end of the file with
a block such as the following:
```python
if __name__ == '__main__':
keyboard.go()
```
- Assign pins and your diode orientation (only necessary on handwire keyboards),
for example:
```python
col_pins = (P.SCK, P.MOSI, P.MISO, P.RX, P.TX, P.D4)
row_pins = (P.D10, P.D11, P.D12, P.D13, P.D9, P.D6, P.D5, P.SCL)
rollover_cols_every_rows = 4
diode_orientation = DiodeOrientation.COLUMNS
swap_indicies = {
(3, 3): (3, 9),
(3, 4): (3, 10),
(3, 5): (3, 11),
}
```
The pins should be based on whatever CircuitPython calls pins on your particular
board. You can find these in the REPL on your CircuitPython device:
```python
import board
print(dir(board))
```
> Note: `rollover_cols_every_rows` is only supported with
> `DiodeOrientation.COLUMNS`, not `DiodeOrientation.ROWS`. It is used for boards

You can further define a bunch of other stuff:
- `debug_enabled` which will spew a ton of debugging information to the serial
console. This is very rarely needed, but can provide very valuable information
if you need to open an issue.
- `unicode_mode` from `kmk.consts.UnicodeMode`, which defines the default
operating system implementation to use for unicode sequences (see examples
below, or `unicode.md`. This can be changed after boot with a key (see
`keycodes.md`)
- `tap_time` which defines how long `KC.TT` and `KC.LT` will wait before
considering a key "held" (see `keycodes.md`)
- `leader_dictionary`, which defines leader sequences (see `leader.md`), defined
as tuples of keycode objects (or you can use
`kmk.keycodes.generate_leader_dictionary_seq` with a string)
We also support unicode sequences (emojis, emoticons, umlauted letters,
whatever) if your operating system and system setup do! See `unicode.md` for
details.
Here's a giant example of all the above. This is my personal 4x12 matrix layout
running on a Planck Rev6 PCB, with a Feather M4 Express wired up to the outer
matrix pins (in somewhat of a "spider" setup), utilizing most of the above
features:
```python
from kmk.boards.klarank import Firmware
from kmk.consts import UnicodeMode
from kmk.keycodes import KC
from kmk.keycodes import generate_leader_dictionary_seq as glds
from kmk.macros.simple import send_string
from kmk.macros.unicode import compile_unicode_string_sequences as cuss
keyboard = Firmware()
keyboard.debug_enabled = True
keyboard.unicode_mode = UnicodeMode.LINUX
_______ = KC.TRNS
xxxxxxx = KC.NO
emoticons = cuss({
