Made 'full' and 'simple' layouts less prone to mistyping and improved layout switching

- The full layout now squashes less keys in a row, to accomplish this
  the semicolon/colon, equal/plus and alt keys had to be sacrificed
  from the full layout (they're on the special/symbols layout still).
- The half-keys in the simple layout are removed, giving a bit more
  space.
- The default total keyboard height has been slightly enlarged (10px)
- The compose key moved down, it was too close to the 'a' (accidental
  presses). The tab key moved to the top-right.
- The spacing between the buttons is slightly larger (aesthetic only)
- The key for layer switching is now labelled more consistently with an icon, and indicates direction of switching with an arrow
- An extra "index" layout was added that can be activated by pressing
  Compose + the next/prev layout button. It has a key for each layout,
  even those not specified at start. This special layout does not appear
  in the normal layer cycling.
- The "Abc" key on secondary layers returns to the last alphabetical layout
- The compose layouts automatically hide when the user presses the space
  where there are no keys, no need to explicitly press the "Abc" key.
