The '0' has been moved because it was hard to type due to being close to
the edge of the screen.
This is fixed in a more elegant way in a27c644, there's no reason to
keep the '0' in an inconsistent place anymore.
Layouts no longer need to mention every localized keys and dead keys.
They are now placed automatically starting from the second row on the
bottom-right corner.
The "loc " prefix is not removed to still be able to define a more
optimal and consistent placement for some extra keys (eg. 'ß' near 's').
Programming layouts no longer need to place every dead keys.
Each layouts can chose which key are localized instead of specifying it
globally for each key.
Important keys are no longer removed from layouts if the 'extra_keys'
mechanism is not working properly. This can happen if language tags
specified in method.xml don't match the user's language.
Removed some currency symbols from some layouts. They are all in the Fn
layer.
The "closest key" logic must be careful not to reveal keys removed by a
modifier.
Must check [_handler.onPointerSwipe] for every candidate values.
[selected_value] is changed back to [selected_direction].
This adds a new bug: When the direction change, the selected value might
not change but a vibration will be triggered anyway.
getAtDirection was too hard to maintain and might contain bugs.
Change slightly the meaning of directions and implement a the nearest
key calculation as a loop.
Since SDK 21, applications can set the background color of the
navigation bar. This is normally simply an item in a theme but it is
more complicated for keyboards.
When typing fast, a second key might be pressed before the first is
released.
Clearing modifiers earlier would prevent this but would break modifiers
placed in corners (especially the accent keys). Instead, don't take
latched modifiers into account when registering the second press.
A new flag is needed to not interfere with holding modifers, which is
merged with the norepeat flag.
The required version of fontforge (from 2020!) is not available in many
distros. This is an annoying for contributors and greatly complicated
the CI and F-Droid scripts.
The generated font file is now included in the sources. Fontforge is
still needed when adding new glyphs but this is not a common operation.
Requires two new diacritics: ogonek and dot_above.
The new accents are also added to the Latvian layout as the two language
can be close but not to the other localized layouts. A new mechanism is
needed to reproducibly add extra keys to layouts without manual
placement.
This reverts commit b85b67c2f0.
The Ctrl key was too hard to use in the new position, especially in
combination with arrows or backspace.
Leave the switching key in the numeric layout however, where the Ctrl
key is not very useful. Put Ctrl on the top-right because bottom-right
is where the switching key is in the other layouts.
Allow specifying a layout for programming and add a key for switching to
it easily.
The switching key is placed on the top edge of the space bar.
The option has no effect by default because the ergonomic isn't ideal,
it needs to be enabled explicitly.
Users of Latin-script languages certainly prefer to use one layout (for
programming or not). This feature might be removed in favor of a better
language-switching mechanisms in the future.
These keys are harder to hit as the finger might exit the screen before
traveling enough to hit a corner. It might be particularly harder for
people that use a phone case.
Every layouts are changed, the notable changes are:
- The Escape key is in the bottom-right corner of the first key.
This position looks weird at first but is a lot easier to type.
- The 0 key is on the top-left of the last key on the first row.
It is not like the other digits.
- The Tab key is on the top-right. This might be hard to re-learn.
- Some layouts had more changes to accomodate these new positions.

Revert to previous version, the original google material icon,
which is not rounded, and it looks better with the rest of the keyboard,
also more correct to represent the open box unicode space char,
instead of a smile
