Skip the repeat language screen in the CJK console; show the keyboard by its label

 Despite the local folder name, the first argument is the Omarchy source checkout (runtime commands, configs, setup scripts, themes, shell, migrations). The installer itself lives in this ISO repo.
 
-The configurator asks for the language on its first screen: English or Simplified Chinese. Chinese reruns the installer in cage + foot, a console that draws Chinese, with Noto Sans Mono CJK unpacked from the offline mirror's `noto-fonts-cjk`. It opens on a bilingual language screen, offers only keyboards with a US keymap (cage keeps a US layout) and preselects Chinese (Simplified, Pinyin); every later screen and the install progress read in Chinese. Choosing English there returns to the VT, which applies the chosen keymap. Without a working display or the font, Chinese continues in English on the VT. Either way a Chinese install sets the target's `LANG` to `zh_CN.UTF-8` through archinstall's `locale_config`. The language never decides the region: that follows the timezone. The Chinese text lives in `OMARCHY_ZH` tables beside the English it replaces.
