Hey everyone, a new version 4 of my Glove80 keymap is now ready for the world: πββοΈ

Changes (since v3):
- Don't mirror lower thumb key on nearest upper one anymore. π«° I found it unpleasant to shift my palm up to reach the nearest upper thumb key compared to stretching my thumb out to hit the furthest lower thumb key, even though it's technically a longer distance from my thumb's home position (on the nearest lower thumb key). Somehow my hands just want to stay down on the palm rest while my fingers reach everything on the Glove80.
- Put arrow keys on nearest upper thumb keys for convenience. β« I realized the importance of having arrow keys on the base layer (per https://discord.com/channels/877392805654306816/1112303407336804362/1112768634314555504) even if they're just there as a fallback to help folks transition over to using the Miryoku cursor layer's home row arrows.
- Increase quick-tap-ms to 175ms to avoid same-hand misfires.
- Symbol layer: prevent &trans for unused keys on left hand.
- Symbol layer: put
*.*
on upper thumb keys for piano swipe. - Symbol layer: add easier

on Glove80 (corners too hard).
I hope this makes it easier (and less weird! π½) for newcomers to try out. Cheers.
