Map them to KEY_MACRO# event codes.
These buttons are defined by HID as follows:
"The user defines the function of these buttons to control software applications or GUI objects."
This matches the semantics of the KEY_MACRO# input event codes that Linux supports.
Also add support for HID "Named Array" collections.
Also add hid-debug support for KEY_MACRO#.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-input/20210519160349.609690-1-linux@weissschuh.net/ (local)
v1 -> v2: Only handle the 30 keys known
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-input/20210519174345.614467-1-linux@weissschuh.net/ (local)
v2 -> v3:
* Use hex constants for consistency
* Validate that the button is part of a "Programmable Buttons" Named Array.
Otherwise the condition would also apply to "Function Buttons".
* Ignore non-"Programmable Buttons" buttons.
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-input/20210520084805.685486-1-linux@weissschuh.net/ (local)
v3 -> v4:
* Mention new support for HID "Named Array" collections in commit message.
* Mention new support KEY_MACRO# in hid-debug.
Applied, thank you.
