[issue1409] Colemak keymap for syscons(4)

[Geert Hendrickx (via DragonFly issue tracker)]

New submission from Geert Hendrickx <ghen at telenet.be>:

The attached file + diff implement the Colemak keyboard layout [1] for
DragonFly's syscons(4) console driver.  The keymap file is copied from FreeBSD
(which was in turn taken from the official Colemak website), with
DragonFly-specific panic and pscr keys added by me.

X11 support is already provided through pkgsrc/x11/xkeyboard-config.

If you're an UTF-8 user, take care to import the keymap file as ISO-8859-15, not
UTF-8 [2].  The file should be imported under share/syscons/keymaps, and the
diff applied there too (while there it restores alphabetical order of
INDEX.keymaps).

Thanks,

	Geert

[1] Colemak is an alternative, ergonomic keyboard layout (somewhat like Dvorak,
but more modern).  See http://colemak.com for more information.
