Please provide US International (Mac) keyboard layout

Project Member Reported by kbr@chromium.org, Oct 23

Issue description

Revision	a2c2b8f674ee3b7372bc87891e04a14a0e51e812-refs/branch-heads/3578@{#14}

In Issue 896907 a few requests for enhancement for the ChromeOS keyboard layout were made. One concrete action item is whether a "US International (Mac)" keyboard layout could be provided. This would emulate the way that accent characters are typed on Mac (e.g. "Option e e" to type "é"), and would also provide useful characters like emdash ("Option -").

Complementary to crbug.com718368 (Support Windows-like US International keyboard) but easier to implement — no changes to key processing should be necessary, just enabling the XKB "us(mac)" variant.
