    Swap Pause and Delete Keys for HP Omen 15 2020

This is an xkb_symbols option to swap the Pause and Delete keys for the HP Omen 15 2020 keyboard.
Following the instructions here https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/212573/how-can-i-make-backspace-act-as-escape-using-setxkbmap/215062#215062 I was able to create a new symbol pause (see pause file in this gist), and add it to the evdev and evdev.lst files and then with the following command perform the remap:
setxkbmap -option pause:swapdelete
	partial function_keys
	xkb_symbols "swapdelete" {
	replace key <PAUS> { [ Delete ] };
	replace key <DELE> { [ Pause ] };
	};
