QMK’s repeat key

[wismill]

Wouldn’t be great to have QMK’s repeat key built-in?

This is borderline, as xkbcommon is aimed at basic keyboard handling. Nevertheless, replaying last keys does not seems totally out of reach either¹.

Food for thought.

This was pretty easy to implement in KBVM since KBVM already supports all key behaviors and RedirectKey. Some minor refactoring was required to allow key behaviors to manipulate modifiers.
