Evdev patch

Hi! I'm Chilean, and I use the Dvorak layout since a few months. However, I had to use the Spanish variant because there's not a Latam variant for that layout.

Based in a work done by a fellow mate[1], I created some patches to apply to some files in the sources:

* evdev-dvorak.patch: for the rules/evdev.xml.in file.
* latam-dvorak.patch: for the symbols/latam file.

I applied both here, and both work. You need only this for supporting the Latam variant for the Dvorak Keyboard. Also tried the layout (with the package patched), and works the same as the Latam QWERTY, but in Dvorak.

Thanks.
