The devices with 3 brightness level keyboards send
UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL0, UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL2, and
UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL4 and not UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL0,
UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL1, and UNIWILL_OSD_KB_LED_LEVEL2.

This patch maps the events correctly to brightness levels 0, 1, and 2.

V1->V2: Use the events as source of truth for brightness_hw_changed value
        again to avoid a race condition as Armin had pointed out.
