Bug#686817: grub-pc: Add option to change keyboard layout

Hi

This has become more important with disk encryption. 
- Put grub on an encrypted disk
- Add GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK=y to /etc/default/grub
  (update-grub says "1", but that's a bug, it must be "y". 
  Another bug: the above parameter is not even documented).
- wonder why your encrypted disk cannot be found, because
  grub mangled your password with the wrong keyboard-layout.
Since it's not that a huge task, please fix it.
