Fix unicode font issue under systemd by ensuring proper setup order

We need to set up the fonts and only *then* run loadkeys,
and finally invoke unicode_start. Otherwise the unicode
setup is incomplete and fonts aren't displayed properly.

Thanks to Sipwise for sponsoring my development time.
Closes Sipwise internal ticket TT#17028.
