Quick Accent: Enhancement: Add "¡" and "¿" to "!" and "?" quick accent menu

[cc-coding]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

When "!" + is pressed, a menu with "¡" appears.
When "?" + is pressed, a menu with "¿" appears.

Scenario when this would be used?

This is a set of characters used when writing in Spanish. It marks the beginning of an exclamation or question in a sentence.

Both are available, but they are accessed from the comma (,) key, and only ¿ shows up when Spanish is selected in Quick Accent.

The fix to add ¡ to the Spanish options looks pretty simple, just adding it to the characters in Languages.cs for the LetterKey.VK_COMMA key. The current version of @damienleroy's version includes both characters in the Spanish characters.

It looks like it might be possible to have characters mapped to the question mark ? key with LetterKey.VK_OEM_2. I don't see that actually used for any other language, so maybe there's a technical reason why nothing is mapped to the ? key. Someone else would have to comment on that.

I understand there may not be a usable implementation of this request with the current version of Quick Accent: looking at KeysEnums.cs, it seems to only "listen" to numbers, letters, and the comma (the reason for the current assignment to comma of "¡" and "¿" ?) But I am still missing something, because for "/" it offers "÷" as an option.

Maybe in the future, a "customizable" version could be possible, where the user may assign needed keys for their own keyboard, e.g. for me "¡" on the "1"/"!" key, and "¿" to the "/"-"?" key (and a German user assign the "¿" on the upper side of the keyboard to the "ß"/"?" key)

Regarding the comment above, about a technical reason for nothing being assigned to a "?" key, could it be that it is not listed in KeysEnums.cs? Maybe this is for a good reason: looking up some international keyboards, I was not able to find the "?" key on the Portuguese or Ukranian keyboards for example.

Also, Quick Accent seems to ignore the shift key; on a US keyboard the options presented to "3" are the same as for "#" (consistent with what KeysEnums.cs shows), and the "!" and "?" are usually "shifted" keys already, not "base" keys, located over different base keys on different international keyboards, when present.

To be useful, for example on a US Keyboard, see the precedent of the "US International" keyboard from Microsoft, and look up the positions for "¡" and "¿" (on the "1"/"!" and "/"-"?" keys with AltGr).

As new user of Quick Accent on a german Keyboard layout working with spanish characters, my assumption was that I have to hit "SHIFT + ? + SPACEBAR" as I assume that the qustion mark will would be upside down as a result.
