OK, so I added 2 service files, and preserved the early startup. However:

1. keyboard-setup is setup very early at boot, before
local-fs-pre.target so that it occurs before fsck (at least the ones
that don't happen in the initrd).
2. The ordering on console-setup is relaxed so that it starts early,
but after /usr and /usr/local are mounted and the root fs is remounted
(so that it can be saved in /etc). At the same time, this will not
delay any further services except the gettys by being
Before=system-getty.slice (BTW, maybe we need a getty-pre.target?).

Review welcome.
