Make capslock behave as control/escape key

Browse source

Behaves as escape when used alone. When accidentally pressed
keep long pressing (>500ms) and it will pretend to not have
been pressed.

# Remaps Capslock key to control.

# Makes Capslock behave as escape - when ONLY capslock is pressed and released
# this only works when we already substitute a ctrl for caps with the lines above,
# otherwise control itself will act as escape.
