Right side flipped split

Improvement

• Now you can use "Right side flipped split" keyboard (eg. Zinc). See pull/22. Thanks to @takkanm

Notes to contributors

• A testing framework, mrubyc-test, was introduced. I encourage you to write tests when you contribute to PRK!
• Though USB serial print was enhanced a little, it's still buggy🐛. I need someone to help me!

Fixes serial port bug and adds "Short keycode" symbols

• 🐛Converts internally LF to CRLF on STDOUT so that almost all serial port clients work properly

Debug print on USB Serial Port

• You can see debug print on a "USB Serial Port" (so-called "COM Port" in Windows) that will be helpful if your keymap.rb doesn't work well

  Baud: 115200
  Data bits: 8
  Parity: None
  Stop bits: 1

Double pressing of RESET to reboot to BOOTSEL mode

• RP2040 will reboot to BOOTSEL mode when you double-press RESET without detaching USB cable!

The first release🎉

• You no longer need compiler toolchains like CMake and GCC
• Just download the release binary and unzip it
• Flash uf2 file into RP2040, then you'll find PRKFirmware drive mounted
• Drag and drop your keymap.rb into PRKFirmware drive
• Keyboard will automatically reboot and apply the new keymap
