The alternate (non-modifier) key value is only used if the SpaceCadet key is pressed and released on its own, without rolling over to any other key. - The code is generally simpler and easier to understand, with better inline comments explaining how it all works.

Rewrite Qukeys plugin from scratch

This is a complete rewrite of Qukeys, in order to implement several improvements
and new features:

- A new KeyAddrEventQueue class has been introduced, in order to store both key
  press and release events in the queue.
- The direct dependence on KeyboardioHID is removed by only flushing one event
  from the queue per cycle.
- The array of Qukey objects is now stored in PROGMEM instead of SRAM, and is
  configured via an array reference template function in order to automatically
  ensure the count will be correct.
- There is a new algorithm for determining which state a qukey will collapse
  into in the case of rollover from qukey to another key, which should reduce
  the rate of errors for "sloppy" typists.
- A Qukey with a primary key value that is a modifier (including layer shift
  keys) is treated like a SpaceCadet key, with different semantics. The
  alternate (non-modifier) key value is only used if the SpaceCadet key is
  pressed and released on its own, without rolling over to any other key.
- The code is generally simpler and easier to understand, with better inline
  comments explaining how it all works.

Fixes #626.
