Hey guys,

I finally got some time to back-port the international keyboard layout
support from the Android Ovirt client Opaque into the SPICE client
aSPICE.

The changes are available in v3.6.7 and are analogous to existing
functionality in Opaque.

There is now a field just before the Advanced Settings button which
allows one to select a preferred keyboard layout. Upon selecting a
layout, the user would have to use an IME on their Android that allows
them to send the special characters they require (e.g. use a Spanish
keyboard to send "ñ"). Finally, the user would have to use a layout in
their virtual machine that matches the preferred layout selected in
aSPICE.

I hope everyone finds this useful!

Cheers,
iordan
