Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 845c53246f man: add various filenames to the index
Everything which is an absolute filename marked with <filename></filename>
lands in the index, unless noindex= attribute is present. Should make
it easier for people to find stuff when they are looking at a file on
disk.

Various formatting errors in manpages are fixed, kernel-install(1) is
restored to formatting sanity.

<title>Description</title>
<para>The <filename>/etc/vconsole.conf</filename> file
configures the virtual console, i.e. keyboard mapping
and console font. It is applied at boot by
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-vconsole-setup.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
<para>The basic file format of the
<filename>vconsole.conf</filename> is a
newline-separated list of environment-like
shell-compatible variable assignments. It is possible
to source the configuration from shell scripts,
however, beyond mere variable assignments no shell
features are supported, allowing applications to read
the file without implementing a shell compatible
execution engine.</para>
<para>Note that the kernel command line options
<varname>vconsole.keymap=</varname>,
<varname>vconsole.keymap.toggle=</varname>,
<varname>vconsole.font=</varname>,
<varname>vconsole.font.map=</varname>,
<varname>vconsole.font.unimap=</varname> may be used
to override the console settings at boot.</para>
<para>Depending on the operating system other
configuration files might be checked for configuration
of the virtual console as well, however only as
fallback.</para>
