[PATCH] input: change SysRq keycode for systems without SysRq key

[federico ferri <xaero@inwind.it>]

this patch adds an entry in Kconfig after 'config MAGIC_SYSRQ' which
asks for a different keycode (replacing also KEY_SYSRQ with
CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_KEYCODE in char/keyboard.c)

it was tested on some USB keyboards (Microsoft and Apple USB keyboards,
and it works)

I sumbitted this patch two years ago, but it was ignored.

I think this patch is very important, even to a non-developer (SysRq-k
is very helpful when testing unstable software/drivers)

[for 2.6]
