For what it's worth, Debian doesn't have this file or manpage either, and 
it does use systemd.

It seems this functionality is covered in Debian by /etc/default/keyboard

The keyboard(5) manpage, such as it is, seems to suggest that there's not 
much documentation for this, but that it does affect both the console and 
X.
