6b3f4dc157 Input infrastructure, INPUT server, PCKBD driver
This commit separates the low-level keyboard driver from TTY, putting
it in a separate driver (PCKBD). The commit also separates management
of raw input devices from TTY, and puts it in a separate server
(INPUT). All keyboard and mouse input from hardware is sent by drivers
to the INPUT server, which either sends it to a process that has
opened a raw input device, or otherwise forwards it to TTY for
standard processing.

Design by Dirk Vogt. Prototype by Uli Kastlunger.

Additional changes made to the prototype:

- the event communication is now based on USB HID codes; all input
  drivers have to use USB codes to describe events;
- all TTY keymaps have been converted to USB format, with the effect
  that a single keymap covers all keys; there is no (static) escaped
  keymap anymore;
- further keymap tweaks now allow remapping of literally all keys;
- input device renumbering and protocol rewrite;
- INPUT server rewrite, with added support for cancel and select;
- PCKBD reimplementation, including PC/AT-to-USB translation;
- support for manipulating keyboard LEDs has been added;
- keyboard and mouse multiplexer devices have been added to INPUT,
  primarily so that an X server need only open two devices;
- a new "libinputdriver" library abstracts away protocol details from
  input drivers, and should be used by all future input drivers;
- both INPUT and PCKBD can be restarted;
- TTY is now scheduled by KERNEL, so that it won't be punished for
  running a lot; without this, simply running "yes" on the console
  kills the system;
- the KIOCBELL IOCTL has been moved to /dev/console;
- support for the SCANCODES termios setting has been removed;
- obsolete keymap compression has been removed;
- the obsolete Olivetti M24 keymap has been removed.

6a0e8e3b80 Added a separate keymap for escaped scancodes. This makes the code
a little cleaner (escaped scancodes are less of a special case) and
lets us be completely flexible when assigning meaning to them.

Future: a tool and ioctl to load the escaped keymap.
