Lars Kiesow e13deb8460 Fedora Packages
I took the liberty to create a Fedora Copr repository for this project
to make this easier to install. I've added the installation instructions
to `INSTALL.md` in case you want to add it there.

# Installation :</br>
## Build dependencies :</br>
* git
* g++
* make
## Dependencies :</br>
* hidapi or libusb
## hidapi vs libusb :</br>
hidapi is a newer implementation but needs more testing.</br>
hidapi is more responsive than libusb (~20ms vs ~150ms).</br>
hidapi seems to not work on CentOS, writing to hidraw is not allowed.</br>
hidapi is recommended but if you encounter a problem on your system, switch to libusb.</br>

`sudo make install-dev` to install the libg810-led library and headers for development.</br>
## Update :</br>
Same as install, but your profile and reboot files are preserved.</br>
## Uninstall :</br>
`sudo make uninstall`</br>
## Boot profiles :</br>
On boot, the keyboard is set with the udev file /etc/udev/rules.d/g810-led.rules</br>
This file launches the profile stored in /etc/g810-led/profile</br>
To prevent your keyboard flashing 3 times when you reboot use the systemd unit (g810-led-reboot).</br>
Samples can be found in /etc/g810-led/samples.</br>
