[PATCH] Keyboard layout support for QEMU/KVM

["Daniel Hokka Zakrisson" <daniel@xxxxxxxxx>]

This patch adds support for qemu's -k option, which is required to run
virt-manager with a non-US keymap. Without it, keys are remapped a number
of times, ending up with a completely unusable layout.

Even with this patch I am having problems using the AltGr key, returning a
scancode of 00. This seems to be a qemu problem though.
