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.

Note that a different solution to the same problem has been proposed by
Anthony Liguori.

That's tangential. Daniel's patch is needed to support current real world
usage of QEMU/KVM. Anthony's proposal is something for future impls.

ACK, this patch looks good - gives parity with key handling in the Xen
driver.
