system: Initialize console keyboard layout in the initrd.

Browse source 
Partially fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/25453>.

* gnu/system.scm (<operating-system>)[keyboard-layout]: New field.
(operating-system-initrd-file): Pass #:keyboard-layout to MAKE-INITRD.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (raw-initrd): Add #:keyboard-layout.
Pass #:keymap-file to 'boot-system'.
(base-initrd): Add #:keyboard-layout.
[helper-packages]: Add LOADKEYS-STATIC when KEYBOARD-LAYOUT is true.
Pass #:keyboard-layout to 'raw-initrd'.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Add #:keymap-file and honor
it.
* doc/guix.texi (operating-system Reference): Document the
'keyboard-layout' field.
(Initial RAM Disk): Update 'raw-initrd' and 'base-initrd' documentation.

The system bootloader configuration object. @xref{Bootloader Configuration}.
@item @code{keyboard-layout} (default: @code{#f})
This field specifies the keyboard layout to use in the console. It can be
either @code{#f}, in which case the default keyboard layout is used (usually
US English), or a @code{<keyboard-layout>} record.
This keyboard layout is in effect as soon as the kernel has booted. For
instance, it is the keyboard layout in effect when you type a passphrase if
your root file system is on a @code{luks-device-mapping} mapped device
(@pxref{Mapped Devices}).
@quotation Note
This does @emph{not} specify the keyboard layout used by the bootloader, nor
that used by the graphical display server. @xref{Bootloader Configuration},
for information on how to specify the bootloader's keyboard layout. @xref{X
Window}, for information on how to specify the keyboard layout used by the X
Window System.
