This adds the Launch Heavy 3 (launch_heavy_3) to tech docs.

The most notable adjustment was that the vertical keycaps now have their switches rotated 90 degrees. That means the switches no longer come out with the keycaps when pulling those, but it also means special care has to be taken to orient the switches properly during reinstallation.

Also of note is that we skipped from Heavy 1 to Heavy 3. There was no Heavy 2; the version number was just incremented to match the regular Launch (and the primary Launch PCB).

This is looking stellar as usual, save for one incorrect link, and adding in language highlighting that there is a correct way to reinstall the ribbon cable for the ten-key.
