Non-US key code support for # ~ | and \ plus small shift-state bugfix

See here for details and the "fixed" set_key method: https://forums.pimoroni.com/t/keybow-running-a-desktop-shortcut/10140

Need to find a better, user-configurable way of emitting the right keycodes for the right regions- the fix mentioned in the forums currently uses hard-coded edge cases to account for # ~ | \.

Moving the shift key release until after the key release is a minor bugfix to avoid weird casing issues when outputting text.

fyi, I'm working on international keyboard layout support in Multibow, supporting also altgr and hopefully dead key sequences, such as for Swiss sg/sf layouts. layouts are comparably easily defined as a layout, with the Multibow runtime calculating the glyph to keycode and modifier mapping itself from the layout data.

#63 should finally put this to rest... I think! I'm not actually totally sure.
