Make `PREVENT_STUCK_MODIFIERS` the default (#3107)
* Remove chording as it is not documented, not used, and needs work. * Make Leader Key an optional feature. * Switch from `PREVENT_STUCK_MODIFIERS` to `STRICT_LAYER_RELEASE` * Remove `#define PREVENT_STUCK_MODIFIERS` from keymaps.

As you can see, you have a few function. You can use `SEQ_ONE_KEY` for single-key sequences (Leader followed by just one key), and `SEQ_TWO_KEYS`, `SEQ_THREE_KEYS` up to `SEQ_FIVE_KEYS` for longer sequences.
Each of these accepts one or more keycodes as arguments. This is an important point: You can use keycodes from **any layer on your keyboard**. That layer would need to be active for the leader macro to fire, obviously.

+To add support for Leader Key you simply need to add a single line to your keymap's `rules.mk`:

##### Process Record
+
The `process_record()` function itself is deceptively simple, but hidden within is a gateway to overriding functionality at various levels of QMK. The chain of events is listed below, using cluecard whenever we need to look at the keyboard/keymap level functions. Depending on options set in rule.mk or elsewhere, only a subset of the functions below will be included in final firmware.
