Secure keyboard input with Cherry SECURE BOARD

A secure keyboard input mode will be enabled for the connected Cherry SECURE BOARD. In this mode, keyboard traffic between the keyboard and the endpoint is transmitted over a TLS 1.3 encrypted connection. The standard keyboard channel will be locked, which means that keyboard input devices without the secure mode will be blocked; see https://www.cherry-world.com/cherry-secure-board-1-0.html.
