Made the adding new keyboard language support easier https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-8665 This branch has implemented following improvements in console proxy keyboard language support 1) ajaxviewer.js and ajaxkeys.js are main files involved in key code translations. These files now can be copied in systemvm/js folder and they will be copied to CPVM with stop/start performed on it. 2) Started passing parameters to CPVM needed to resolve the ambiguous cases of keycode translations. 3) Generalise the framework such that one needs to modify only ajaxkeys.js (file which has keycode mappings) without need of much knowledge in js.
