[hackers] [slstatus][PATCH keymap 1/2] Add keymap component

From: <michaelbuch12_AT_gmail.com>
Date: Tue, 22 May 2018 22:50:19 +0100

From: Michael Buch <michaelbuch12_AT_gmail.com>

Adding a new keymap component that will
indicate the current keyboard layout (language)
and variant if any was set. I use the
standard X11 XKB APIs to retrieve and parse
the xkb_symbols set with setxkbmap.
