Correct default French MessagEase layout #830

Steps to reproduce

  1. Use the "french messagease" layout
  2. Go to an text/input field
  3. Start your finger from the middle-left cell (try inputing the "û" as in MessagEase)
  4. Swipe up

Expected behavior

Character "û" should be inputed.

The french MessagEase layout put the "û" character in this slot.

Actual behavior

"ô" is inputed

There is a discrepancy between the french layout in MessagEase keyboard and the "french messagease" layout in Thumb-Key keyboard, leading to this error.

version of the program

2.7.4

Android version

Android 14

Device

Google Pixel 6

Other details

I think that the "french messagease" layout should, as the title says, just be the default french messagease layout, and not one with a little change/difference made by the initial committer.

The actual, modified, version could stay but with another name to avoid any confusion.

If new users coming from years (like me, more than 10 years) of using MessagEase, start using Thumb-Key with the "french messagease" layout, they're expecting the exact same layout.

In fact, this letter change drove me nuts and forced me to find another keyboard alternative that, for now, best scratch my itch : FlickBoard.

Please consider correcting this default layout to better accomodate newcomers from long time MessagEase use, and keep this personnal and modified version under another name.

This changes the current `FRMessagEase.kt` file to better match its actual
MessagEase counterpart.

> IMPORTANT: I copied the old unchanged `FRMessagEase.kt` layout to `FRMessagEaseV2.kt`, and its title is now "français messagease v2"

Changes:
  - Changed U-key top swipe to letter "û"
  - Changed T-key bottom to letter "ù"
    - Moved combining diaeresis ("¨") to S-key bottom
