Support standard XCompose files?

This is an awesome project. Thank you!

I have been using XCompose on linux with the files here (https://github.com/kragen/xcompose) for a long time and it's been quite annoying to not have this on Mac.

Would it be possible to make gen-compose work with "standard" compose files already in use? The syntax looks like this

<Multi_key> <minus> <less>		: "←"	leftarrow	# LEFTWARDS ARROW

Yeah I've been writing a converter already! So it's WIP :)
Thats a really good repo for testing!

I've added initial support via #2

Still need tests and I'm experimenting whether mac's key map can support special characters such as arrows as some xcompose maps have those and right now they are just ignored.

thanks! I'll try it out soon.

Implemented via #2
