Felix Förtsch 0e1d8c4a85 add layout PDF generation script, generate PDFs for all versions (closes #7)
- add scripts/generate_layout_pdf.py (requires fpdf2)
- generates ISO keyboard diagrams with Base, Shift, Option, Shift+Option
  layers per key, plus dead key composition tables
- output: docs/eurkey-{version}-layout.pdf for v1.2, v1.3, v1.4, v2.0
