The special key range (from KEY_MIN upwards) currently overlaps with
the valid range for Unicode characters, and therefore prohibits the
use of Unicode key values outside the ASCII range.
Create space for Unicode key values by moving the special keys to the
range immediately above the maximum valid Unicode character. This
allows the existing encoding of special keys as an efficiently packed
representation of the equivalent ANSI escape sequence to be maintained
almost as-is.

Several keyboard layouts define ASCII characters as accessible only
via the AltGr modifier. Add support for this modifier to ensure that
all ASCII characters are accessible.
Experiments suggest that the BIOS console is likely to fail to
generate ASCII characters when the AltGr key is pressed. Work around
this limitation by accepting LShift+RShift (which will definitely
produce an ASCII character) as a synonym for AltGr.

Handle Ctrl and CapsLock key modifiers within key_remap(), to provide
consistent behaviour across different console types.

The key with scancode 86 appears in the position between left shift
and Z on a US keyboard, where it typically fails to exist entirely.
Most US keyboard maps define this nonexistent key as generating "\|",
with the notable exception of "loadkeys" which instead reports it as
generating "<>". Both of these mapping choices duplicate keys that
exist elsewhere in the map, which causes problems for our ASCII-based
remapping mechanism.
Work around these quirks by treating the key as generating "\|" with
the high bit set, and making it subject to remapping. Where the BIOS
generates "\|" as expected, this allows us to remap to the correct
ASCII value.

To minimise code size, our keyboard mapping works on the basis of
allowing the BIOS to convert the keyboard scancode into an ASCII
character and then remapping the ASCII character.
This causes problems with keyboard layouts such as "fr" that swap the
shifted and unshifted digit keys, since the ASCII-based remapping will
spuriously remap the numeric keypad (which produces the same ASCII
values as the digit keys).
Fix by checking that the keyboard scancode is within the range of keys
that vary between keyboard mappings before attempting to remap the
ASCII character.

The "used" attribute can be applied only to functions or variables,
which prevents the use of __asmcall as a type attribute.
Fix by removing "used" from the definition of __asmcall for i386 and
x86_64 architectures, and adding explicit __used annotations where
necessary.

Commit 6149e0a ("[librm] Provide symbols for inline code placed into
other sections") may cause build failures due to duplicate label names
if the compiler chooses to duplicate inline assembly code.
Fix by using the "%=" special format string to include a
guaranteed-unique number within the label name.
The "%=" will be expanded only if constraints exist for the inline
assembly. This fix therefore requires that all REAL_CODE() fragments
use a (possibly empty) constraint list.

There seems to be no reason for the sti/cli pair used around each call
to INT 10. Remove these instructions, so that printing debug messages
from within an ISR does not temporarily reenable interrupts.

Move most arch/i386 files to arch/x86, and adjust the contents of the
Makefiles and the include/bits/*.h headers to reflect the new
locations.
This patch makes no substantive code changes, as can be seen using a
rename-aware diff (e.g. "git show -M5").
This patch does not make the pcbios platform functional for x86_64; it
merely allows it to compile without errors.
