description:
Move description of keyboard layouts to wskbd.4, add newer layouts

Previously, the best reference was pckbd.4. This does not make much
sense to read if you are on, say, an evbarm device with only USB.

wsconsctl.8 contained a vaguer description of supported language names,
which isn't very useful because you can't pass full language names
to the command. Point readers to wskbd.4 instead.

Note in the wskbd.4 page that while all layouts are generally supported
by pckbd(4) and ukbd(4), older keyboard interfaces might only support
a subset.
