Log:
  kbd: const'ify a couple of keyboard_driver fields
  
  Nothing modifies these things, but const'ify out of an abundance of caution.
  If we could const'ify the definition in each keyboard driver, I likely
  would- improper mutations here can lead to misbehavior or slightly more
  annoying to debug state.
