Keyboard mappings are managed by the kbd project [1, 2], but actual non-legacy keymaps are converted from xkeyboard mappings [3, 4]. (The idea is that it is best if the same mapping is available in the graphical environment and on the console). If you want to add a new mapping, I'd talk with the xkeyboard upstream.
