<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request introduces the new KeystrokeOverlay module to
PowerToys, including its documentation, build configuration, installer
setup, and spell-check dictionary updates. KeystrokeOverlay can be used
to show keys pressed on the screen like Visual Studio Code's Screencast
Mode.

It provides customization options for text size and background, offers
four types of display modes, and three shortcuts for toggling on/off the
display, cycling through monitors, and through different display modes
(see below for more details).
