mitosis:datagrok: minor layout improvements (#2366)
* mitosis/datagrok: make qwerty the default layout * mitosis/datagrok: update readme to match qwerty default * mitosis:datagrok: remove redundant name for transparent meh, decided i don't need an extra key to represent "key that is transparent because it's a modifier on a layer below." it's a maintenance burden when moving other keys around * mitosis:datagrok: add num lock on Blue + QWERTY T * mitosis:datagrok: tap lshift = tab we use tab completion a lot so let's get it onto an unmodified key somehow * mitosis:datagrok: update readme * mitosis:datagrok: improve notes in README * mitosis:datagrok: note numlock in README

should be colocated on their own layer.

## To do
|
||||
|

- Figure out where to place non-numpad numbers so we don't need num lock turned
|
||||
on to type them?
|
||||
- Improve LED indications (may require modding bluetooth firmware):
|
||||
- Is any board nonresponsive (which one?)
|
||||
- Does either board have a low battery?
|
||||
- Add Insert, PrintScr, Pause/Break
|
||||
- Make QWERTY base layer for people who customize layout in software? Store
|
||||
default base layer in eeprom?
|
||||
- See if the henkans placement is at all useful for Japanese speakers, or abuse
|
||||
different keysyms

- ~~Make QWERTY base layer for people who customize layout in software?~~ I

|

scancodes 145/175. 145 is LANG2, 175 is "reserved" in USB HID spec.)
