Description:
I was able to install and run qmk from community just fine even without python-hid. I believe it should be therefore moved to optdepends.

Additional info:
* qmk 1.1.1-1
This task depends upon

Upstream appears to disagree [1]. Might need further investigation.

As per discussion with QMK developers:
- qmk console = console.py (https://github.com/qmk/qmk_cli/blob/master/qmk_cli/subcommands/console.py) depends on python-hid
- qmk console is used for debugging output from devices (https://qmk.github.io/qmk_mkdocs/master/en/cli_commands/#qmk-console), it is not required for firmware compilation for instance

Sorry, I have tried optdepends on qmk for toolchain and libraries before and upstream just got veryvery annoyed at us because qmk wasnt working out of the box.

Won't fix.
