For split keyboards using `RGB_MATRIX_SPLIT` with an LED driver, you can either have the same driver address or different driver addresses. If using different addresses, use `DRIVER_ADDR_1` for one and `DRIVER_ADDR_2` for the other one. Then, in `g_is31_leds`, fill out the correct driver index (0 or 1).

If you want to set custom indicators, such as an LED for Caps Lock, or layer indication, you can use the `rgb_matrix_indicators_kb` or `rgb_matrix_indicators_user` function for that:

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)`.
