Description of changes

Adds a simple wrapper to build keylightd and provide it as a systemd service. Has options to set the brightness and timeout, and control the power light.

This is a huge help when watching videos in dark rooms when the non-dimmable power light can be quite distracting.

Module is only imported for Framework 13 and 16 as the Framework 12 does not have a keyboard backlight.

Things done
  • Tested the changes in your own NixOS Configuration
  • Tested the changes end-to-end by using your fork of nixos-hardware and
    importing it via <nixos-hardware> or Flake input
