Bug#378309: xkb-data: Please include the Dzongkha keyboard layout (dz)

Something else: could this "bt" layout be selected when the X server
packages are installed?

AFAICT this is done in xserver-xorg config script but the only logic
there is based on the "DI keymap". However, for languages that are
used only with the graphical version of DI, the selection of the
keymap, namely the console keymap, is mostly irrelevant (for instance,
there is obviously no Dzongkha/Bhutan keymap in console-data).

This is not only a problem for Dzongkha, actually, but also for all
languages which do not have a specific  console keyboard layout
because it is pointless.
