Add MxSS keyboard (#3335) * Added basic MxSS support * Fixed split RSHFT for ISO layouts * Updated readme.md for MxSS * Added initial support for individual control of front RGB LEDs * Changed RGBLED color selection to work using hue and saturation rather than RGB Added code for LED state change on layer change * Avoid needing an entire 8 bits to store the brightness value * Added custom keycodes, along with their handlers * Added EEPROM storage for front LED config * Fixed up ability to use QMK Configurator and updated readme.md * Applied suggested changes from pull request: https://github.com/standard/standard/issues/452 Updated name in license descriptions Updated layouts to snake case Corrected mistakes in info.json Updated layer_colors to a weak attributed array in mxss.c * Defined a new safe range for custom keycodes in keymap.c

Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
make mxss:default
See [build environment setup](https://docs.qmk.fm/build_environment_setup.html) then the [make instructions](https://docs.qmk.fm/make_instructions.html) for more information.
# Front LED Operation
The MxSS PCB has 2 front RGB LEDs which has a separate brightness and mode of operation to the rest of the RGB LEDs. These are controlled through the supplied custom keycodes.
There are 3 modes of operation:
- FLED_OFF - Front LEDs stay off
- FLED_RGB - Front LEDs are part of the standard RGB LED modes, only works correctly with rainbow modes (will fix on request)
- FLED_INDI - Top front LED represents Caps Lock status, bottom LED represents current layer
Colors for FLED_INDI mode are hardcoded as hue/saturation values, the caps lock color can be found in mxss_frontled.h, the layer colors are defined in keymap.c (see default/keymap.c for example).
## Custom Keycodes
- FLED_MOD - Cycle between the 3 modes (FLED_OFF -> FLED_RGB -> FLED_INDI)
- FLED_VAI - Increase front LED brightness
- FLED_VAD - Decrease front LED brightness
# Further Notes
As SAFE_RANGE is used for defining the custom keycodes seen above, please use NEW_SAFE_RANGE as the starting value for any custom keycodes in keymap.c, as per the example.
