* EEPROM management
** Uses
*** Store current keyboard ID
*** Store status of various options
**** key repeat rates and delays
**** communications delays
**** serial baud rates
**** keyboard macros
**** keyboard specific options
***** all caps / upper+lower
***** handling of special keys
** Allocate on demand
** System block does not change as keyboards are changed
*** Items include:
**** current keyboard
*** All system block allocation must occur before any keyboard allocation may occur.
*** Once system EEPROM is allocated, system EEPROM is "locked"
*** If system EEPROM is locked, then EEPROM cannot be reallocated, although the parameters may be re-written.
*** provision to unlock EEPROM, for example, when firmware is updated, or during development
** Keyboard block is reset whenever the keyboard changes
*** Any parameters specific to a keyboard, such as macros, keymap-specific settings, etc. are stored here.
*** This section is erased when keymap changes, but not when a keymap is loaded from EEPROM at powerup.
