Log:
  The new naming scheme for keymap files for use with vt(4) introduced a
  collision for "no" as a country code with "NO" meaning "do not load any
  keymap" (which also has been the default value in etc/defaults/rc.conf
  for a long time).
  
  The result of this collision is, that "kbdcontrol -l no" will load the
  Norwegian keymap, while "keymap=no" in rc.conf was interpreted as the
  lower case spelling of "NO" meaning "no keyboard" (and "no.kbd" was not
  loaded).
  
  Fix this by matching only the upper-case spelling "NO" in rc.d/syscons
  when deciding whether to load a keymap file.
  
  This will lead to "no.kbd" being loaded, if the until now valid (but
  non-default) spelling "no" was used in an individual rc.conf file to mean
  "no keyboard". But all alternatives I could think of introduce a larger
  violation of POLA ...
