cldr keyboard platform questions

[Mark Davis ☕️ via CLDR-Users]

1. The chromeos data includes a subset of the linux data. (Note that the
iOS data is older...)
2. There isn't a hardwareMap for the android platform, since it is virtual.
You could use the ISO codes to construct one.

Note that we are working on extensions of the keyboard mechanism:
