Add keymap for the Medion X10 RF remote which uses the ati_remote

Since rc-core supports loading custom keytmaps should we ass medion
keymap here?
I think we should keep the original keymap to avoid regressions, but new
keymaps should be offloaded to udev.
Well, I simply followed the convention, as all other remotes under
media/ have the default table in-kernel.
I'm not against putting it off-kernel, but in that case the same should
be done for all new media devices. Is that the plan?
That's the long-term plan, but not every distro has a sufficiently new
enough v4l-utils and ir-keytable with udev rules to load keymaps, so
we've been adding default remotes in-kernel and userspace (effectively
meaning duplicated keymap loads if the user does have ir-keytable with
udev rules, but meh). I'd say add it for now, and when we get to the
point of v4l-utils ubiquity, we can drop this along with all the other
in-kernel rc keymaps.
