dot/xinitrc, dot/xmodmap, setup: Configure keyboard using xmodmap files.

Separate out the existing xmodmap hacking into a dotfile, and allow a
local one.

I'm changing over to swapping the caps-lock and control, but I don't
know how to do this without using explicit keycodes which probably isn't
appropriate for global configuration.  (Maybe this can be an mdw.conf
thing.)
