Subject: [PATCH] Defined IS_(HOST_)LED_ON/OFF() and improved LED documentation
 (#4853)

* Defined IS_(HOST_)LED_ON/OFF() and improved LED documentation

* Update docs/custom_quantum_functions.md

Co-Authored-By: DidierLoiseau <didierloiseau+github@gmail.com>

* Update docs/custom_quantum_functions.md

Co-Authored-By: DidierLoiseau <didierloiseau+github@gmail.com>

* Integrated @drashna and @fauxpark's PR comments

- changed all plurals of "LED" to "LEDs" in the file
- rewording of the note about host_keyboard_leds() vs. led_set_user()

* Update docs/custom_quantum_functions.md

+## `host_keyboard_leds()`
+
+Call this function to get the last received LED state.
+This is useful for reading the LED state outside `led_set_*`, e.g. in [`matrix_scan_user()`](#matrix-scanning-code).
+
+For convenience, you can use the `IS_HOST_LED_ON(LED_NAME)` and `IS_HOST_LED_OFF(LED_NAME)` macros instead of calling `host_keyboard_leds()` directly.
+
+## Setting physical LED state
+
+Some keyboard implementations provide convenience methods for setting the state of the physical LEDs.
+
+### Ergodox and Ergodox EZ
+
+The Ergodox EZ implementation provides `ergodox_right_led_``1`/`2`/`3_on`/`off()`
+to turn individual LEDs on and off, as well as
+`ergodox_right_led_on`/`off(uint8_t led)`
+to turn them on and off by their number.
+
+In addition, it is possible to specify the brightness level with `ergodox_led_all_set(uint8_t n)`,
+for individual LEDs with `ergodox_right_led_1`/`2`/`3_set(uint8_t n)`
+or by their number using `ergodox_right_led_set(uint8_t led, uint8_t n)`.
+
+It defines `LED_BRIGHTNESS_LO` for the lowest brightness and `LED_BRIGHTNESS_HI` for the highest brightness, which is also the default.
 
 # Matrix Initialization Code
 
-Before a keyboard can be used the hardware must be initialized. QMK handles initialization of the keyboard matrix itself, but if you have other hardware like LED's or i&#xb2;c controllers you will need to set up that hardware before it can be used.
