Cleanup/rgb matrix (#5811)

* clean up rgb matrix extern usage

Moved rgb matrix boiler plate into macros

Rebased onto typing heatmap pr

* Fixing the reversed frame buffer access in digital rain

* Fixing digital rain & typing heatmap if keyreactive effects are not enabled

* Apply suggestions from code review

Co-Authored-By: Drashna Jaelre <drashna@live.com>

* Adding parenthesizes to DRIVER_LED_TOTAL where necessary

* Updated docs

* added notes about parentheses

+!> Note the parentheses, this is so when `DRIVER_LED_TOTAL` is used in code and expanded, the values are added together before any additional math is applied to them. As an example, `rand() % (DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL + DRIVER_2_LED_TOTAL)` will give very different results than `rand() % DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL + DRIVER_2_LED_TOTAL`.

 Currently only 2 drivers are supported, but it would be trivial to support all 4 combinations.
 
 Define these arrays listing all the LEDs in your `<keyboard>.c`:
