ergodox: Update algernon's keymap to v1.6

Browse Source 
Major changes include:

Base layer changes
------------------

* The parentheses & bracket keys have been merged: tapping them results
  in `[` or `{` (if it was shifted), double tapping leads to `(`.
* The `:;` and `-_` keys are now available on the base layer, on
  their **ADORE** location, too, just below `[{(`/`]})`.
* The `Apps` key has been replaced by `F12`.
* The `-`/`_` is no longer a tap-dance key.

ADORE layer changes
-------------------

* Adjustments were made to the **ADORE** layer, to separate some
  inconvenient combinations.

Miscellaneous changes
---------------------

* `LEAD u` now starts the symbolic unicode input system, instead of the
  OS-one.
* The mouse acceleration keys on the **Navigation and Media* layer have
  been turned into toggles: tap them once to turn them on, until tapped
  again. Tapping an accelerator button will turn all the others off.
* When the **ARROW** layer is on, the *red* and *blue* LEDs light up
  now.

Heatmap
-------

* The built-in keylogger has been greatly enhanced, it now outputs the
  pressed state, and the layer (Dvorak or ADORE). As such, the
  `ADORE_AUTOLOG` option has been removed, instead there is
  `AUTOLOG_ENABLE` now, which when enabled, makes the keylogger start
  when the keyboard boots. It defaults to off.
* The heatmap generator received a lot of updates.

algernon's layout
=======================
This is an unconventional layout for the ErgoDox EZ. For more details about the history of the layout, see my [blog posts about my ErgoDox journey][blog-ergodox].

* The `GUI` key is special, because when I double-tap it, it sends `GUI + w`, which pops up an application selector. It also switches to a one-shot layer, where the number row on the left half turns into app selector macros, for the most common things I usually want to switch to. Otherwise it behaves as on a normal layout.
* The `ESC` key also doubles as a one-shot cancel key: if tapped while any of the one-shot modifiers are in-flight (as in, single-tapped, and not expired yet), it cancels all one-shot modifiers. It also cancels the **Hun** layer, if active. Otherwise it sends the usual keycode.
* The **Media** and **Hun** layer keys are one-shot, the **STENO** key is a toggle.
* When holding any of the **Arrow** layer keys, the arrow layer activates while the layer key is held. Tapping the key produces the normal key.
* When holding the `Tab`/**Arrow** key, the arrow layer activates while the key is held. Tapping the key produces the normal, `Tab` key. Double-tapping it toggles the **Arrow** layer on until a third tap.

* Tapping the `[{(`/`)}]` keys once yields `[` (or `{` when shifted), tapping them twice yields `(`.
* The **Lead** key allows me to type in a sequence of keys, and trigger some actions:
- `LEAD u` enters unicode input mode, by sending the GTK+ key sequence that does this.
- `LEAD l` uses the unicode input method to enter a `λ`.
- `LEAD s` does a lot of magic to type in a shruggie: `¯\_(ツ)_/¯`
- `LEAD y` types `\o/`.

When the keypress logging functionality is enabled (by `LEAD d`), the keyboard will output a line every time a key is pressed, containing the position of the key in the matrix. This allows one to collect this information, and build analytics over it, such as a heat map, including dead keys too.
Included with the firmware is a small tool that can parse these logs, and create a heatmap that one can import into [KLE][kle]. To use it, simply point `tools/log-to-heatmap.py` to a base layout file (one is included in the `tools/` directory), and the key position log. The latter one can create by running `hid-listen`, and redirecting its output to a file.
Included with the firmware is a small tool that can parse these logs, and create a heatmap that one can import into [KLE][kle]. To use it, either pipe the output of `hid_listen` into it, or pipe it an already saved log, and it will save the results into files in an output directory (given on the command-line). See the output of `tools/log-to-heatmap.py --help` for more information.
