Input connector shim - for power switch, USB 2.0 and LEDs

For those in the US that are looking to purchase one of these, I have a few available on Jawa
(Note, these are about 2.25mm taller than the original design because JLPCB requires boards to be at least 1cm in both dimensions for the assembly process. It still fits well within the footprint of the connector)

Made a new design that moves the through holes out from behind the connector
SockHungryClutz/Framework-Input-Connector-Modified: Modified version of CRImier’s small Framework input connector shim

And through this process I figured out that my OG Framework Laptop 13 mainboard with 11th gen Intel has weird power connections for the internal USB. The 5VS connector causes issues when the battery is <90%, and the 5VALW reads as 0.8V. This has been an expensive journey to get right back around to using one of the external USB ports for my project.
