installer: Sort keyboard layouts according to language and translations.

Previously, we would always (1) put English first, and (2) sort the
other layouts based on their English description.  This fixes both
issues.

* gnu/installer/newt/keymap.scm (sort-layouts)[layout<?]: New procedure.
[preferred]: New variable.
Partition according to both the 'name' and 'synopsis' fields.  Sort both
the main layouts and the other layouts according to 'layout<?'.
