[Support] Halo96

[andyrak]

Version 0.6.4 (0.6.4) reports the Halo96 as an unsupported keyboard.

No supported keyboards found, but a similar keyboard, 'BY Tech NuPhy Halo96', has been found.

Hoping to help contribute by using the same methods mentioned in the Halo65 support issue as necessary.

2nd! Just got my Halo96 and would really love to be able to tweak it in Linux. Thanks for this!

I second this!

Picking this back up as I finally have time to dedicate to it.

I have the necessary UI modifications and detection support to recognize the Halo96.

As for the keymaps and indices though... using wireshark + usbpcap, I have packets. However, when writing to the Halo96 with Nuphy Console, there's no packet that has usb.urb_type == URB_SUBMIT, so all of my pcap parse results are empty.

Hate to bother you @donn, but could you share some of your pcapng dumps from your original work so I can compare? I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for, or not looking for.

[donn]

@andyrak Sharing pcapng would be a massive security risk for me. Also, I just don't have them anymore...

Can you start a PR with these changes? I do have dumps from the Halo96 that I can already use.

[andyrak]

Yeah, I figured as much. Thanks!

I'll get a PR going for what I have.

@andyrak Please keep us posted in the new year if you have the PR ready :)
Happy holidays

Sorry for the delay. Got sick, was traveling, got sick again, then had the holidays come through. I'm finally back home and will get the PR up by end of week.

Again, sorry for the delay all. Schedule got the better of me. PR #68 up for initial review.
