  -----------
  Refactor language configuration

This refactoring significantly reduces complexity while maintaining the same
functionality and improving maintainability:

- Remove complex setvalue() functions and replace with direct file generation
- Modernize from legacy KEYTABLE/XKEYBOARD to modern XKB layout system
- Consolidate language-functions with consistent structure and clear comments
- Fix validation logic to properly check XKBLAYOUT for supported languages
- Remove obsolete charset/keytable variables and grml-small specific checks
- Simplify keyboard configuration with unified configure_keyboard() function

Changes reduce codebase by 351 lines while maintaining identical functionality
and improving error handling. The new approach is more straightforward and
less prone to bugs.

grml-small check was removed as it was inaccurate: locales are present, even
if the LC_MESSAGES data gets removed by grml-live.

Default once again to lang=en, as this reinstates English (Austria).
