From upstream kbd, some keymap names are reused across very different
keyboard layouts. This is a a problem because loadkeys just picks the
first keymap it sees. The clashing names lead to e.g. "loadkeys no"
defaulting to a norwegian dvorak map instead of the much more common
qwerty one.
Used Arch Linux's list of keymaps that need renaming, with a small
deviation: the norwegian dvorak map becomes dvorak-no instead of
no-dvorak, to match the naming scheme for all the other dvorak maps.

Following legacy packing conventions, `isArm` was defined just for
32-bit ARM instruction set. This is confusing to non packagers though,
because Aarch64 is an ARM instruction set.
The official ARM overview for ARMv8[1] is surprisingly not confusing,
given the overall state of affairs for ARM naming conventions, and
offers us a solution. It divides the nomenclature into three levels:
```
ISA: ARMv8 {-A, -R, -M}
/ \
Mode: Aarch32 Aarch64
| / \
Encoding: A64 A32 T32
```
At the top is the overall v8 instruction set archicture. Second are the
two modes, defined by bitwidth but differing in other semantics too, and
buttom are the encodings, (hopefully?) isomorphic if they encode the
same mode.
The 32 bit encodings are mostly backwards compatible with previous
non-Thumb and Thumb encodings, and if so we can pun the mode names to
instead mean "sets of compatable or isomorphic encodings", and then
voilà we have nice names for 32-bit and 64-bit arm instruction sets
which do not use the word ARM so as to not confused either laymen or
experienced ARM packages.

Existing "mips64el" should be "mipsel".
This is just the barest minimum so that nixpkgs can recognize them as
systems - although required for building individual derivations onto
MIPS boards, it is not sufficient if you want to actually build nixos on
those targets
This adds support for the Neo keyboard layout (http://neo-layout.org/, a
layout optimized for the German language) for the native Linux console.
It also adds build dependencies on autotools and friends, because we
need to recreate the automake config in order to include a new keyboard
layout directory.

what the new nix thinks the fuloong is.
Anyone having the old nix should use a nixpkgs previous to this change to build
the new nix. And then, with the new nix, he can use any newer nixpkgs revision.
