I added diacritics support to Plasma Keyboard!

Now I can more easily write German words as I continue learning it, such as: über, schön, and Straße!

Also, I can sprinkle my lovely symbols in my writing without having to resort to the compose key or copy-pasting — isn't that great‽ 😁

@Merritt But can it type the elusive uppercase ß? How else are you going to yell "SCHEIẞE!!"? (just kidding, nobody actually uses that character because standard German keyboards can't type it easily)

@fell at least on phone keyboards it is easily available behind the upper s. If the kids are able to use it, it might get a broader adoption, who knows? @Merritt
