Adds the two new scribes (KS3 and KSC) released December 2025.
Also adds two new mystery kindles found in /etc/deviceTypes.conf in 5.19.1 as ValidKindleUnknown_53C and ValidKindleUnknown_KVR.
Please let me know if I missed updating anything in here, or made any mistakes!

They have been added as ValidKindleUnknown_53C &
ValidKindleUnknown_KVR.
This was added in 69bcde8 because my editor Kate decided to
Before, this wasn't here, and I don't want it to cause any

LGTM, many thanks ;).

I'll push basic detection in FBInk, too, and hope for the best until I have time to look at the kernels (I assume we still don't have shell on those, so it's not critical anyway ^^).

Also, set a different deviceName for "we know these actually might exist" Kindles,
vs. "WTH is this?!" (i.e., whether we know the S/N prefix or not).
