hp300: Add support for Apollo Domain keyboard. From OpenBSD.
[tsutsui 20110212]
+ disklabel(8): Disable COMPAT_386BSD_MBRPART. The related kernel
+ compat option was disabled by default four years ago, and
+ NetBSD has not used partition id 0x165 for much longer.
+ Meanwhile the presence of this code in disklabel can
+ cause sysinst to clobber FreeBSD installs on the same
+ disk. Those with very, very old NetBSD installations may
+ need to use fdisk(8) to change the NetBSD partition ids
+ from 0x165 to 0x169. [dholland 20110212]
