kbdmux(4) keyboard multiplexer integration
o Add minimal kbdmux(4) man page to the source tree (more details to follow);
o Hook up kbdmux(4) to the build.
This concludes the first part of the kbdmux(4) keyboard multiplexer
integration. It now should be possible to use kbdmux(4), however one
must configure kbdmux(4) by hand (i.e. load kbdmux(4) module and use
kbdcontrol(1) to add/remove slave keyboards to/from kbdmux(4)).
