Research direction

Start by finding where the existing Hebrew layout preset is defined in the Kotlin code, and compare it with the three layout screenshots in the issue. The third screenshot is the layout being requested, and it can only be read from the image, so confirm the key arrangement with the maintainer on #338 before writing anything. Done means a new Hebrew preset that matches that layout is selectable in the app's keyboard settings, following the pattern of the existing preset.

Feature description

Hi,
As I was asked to do on #338, I would like to ask for more Hebrew presets. Gboard supports two versions.

ignoreImageMinify ignoreImageMinify The first one already exits in Fossify. Samsung has a similar one to the second one. ignoreImageMinify Please add another to support my preference.
Why do you want this feature?

I use other presets of the keyboard than the one available on Fossify and it I prefer the other (for most usage) more.
