(#10716) * New feature: Retro Tapping per key (#10622) * Allow for modification of output RGB values when using rgblight/rgb_matrix. (#10638) * Add housekeeping task callbacks so that keyboards/keymaps are capable of executing code for each main loop iteration. (#10530) * Rescale both ChibiOS and AVR backlighting. * Reduce Helix keyboard build variation (#8669) * Minor change to behavior allowing display updates to continue between task ticks (#10750) * Some GPIO manipulations in matrix.c change to atomic.

+In addition, there are the advanced indicator functions. These are aimed at those with heavily customized displays, where rendering every LED per cycle is expensive. Such as some of the "drashna" layouts. This includes a special macro to help make this easier to use: `RGB_MATRIX_INDICATOR_SET_COLOR(i, r, g, b)`.

### Suspended state :id=suspended-state
To use the suspend feature, make sure that `#define RGB_DISABLE_WHEN_USB_SUSPENDED true` is added to the `config.h` file.
