[Feature Request] automatic generation of default keymaps about qmk_configurator

[yanfali]

At the time it was very difficult to parse C, now we are data driven it is probably time to revisit.

Cool!
Adding an endpoint to the API for getting the default keymap parsed by CLI's c2json seems like the most obvious solution - it keeps the code-operations on the API side, which already keeps itself updated with qmk_firmware code changes, right?.

Do You think it's easily possible to add such endpoint to the API, since the code is not sourced?
We could take care of the configurator part then - for fetching the keymap from the endpoint.
