												Makefile redo & other features (#395)
* .build containment implemented
* no destructive variable setting - builds in either folder
* make from 3 places
* cleans before each build
* make from root with keyboard=keyboard, keymap=keymap
* make from keyboard/keyboard with keymap=keymap
* make from keymaps/keymap
* only implemented on planck
* adds color diag to avr-gcc
* makefiles for all plancks, clean-up
* quick build-all makefile for plancks
* reformatting of make output (colors)
* color toggle, tmk path corrections
* correct if statement for color
* move config.h to main makefile, updates preonic, atomic

								The LED on the bottom is `C4` . All 7 of the leds are turned on when the keyboard boots-up in the `sixkeyboard.c`  file - backlight_enable is not required. The MCU is an Atmega16u2, so the flash memory is limited to 0x3000 bytes - the current setup uses just about all of that! I'm sure things can be opitimised a bit.
							 
						 
					
						
							
								
							 
							
								
							 
							
								 
							 
							
							
								
							 
						 
					
						
							
								
							 
							
								
									
										 
									 
								
							 
							
								 
							 
							
							
								There is a jumper on the bottom of the board (next to the USB port) that serves as a reset button - I drilled a hole in my case to allow for quick access via a screwdriver/metal object.
