Since we moved to a runtime backend system for the input subsystem, we
cannot access the internal keysym_to_string() helpers anymore. Hence, use
the recently introduced uterm-input forwarding helper.

Print keysym even if we have a UCS4 representation. This makes debugging
keyboard issues much easier. Also increase buffer size to 32 as there are
many symbols longer than 16 characters.

Both dumb and xkb don't actually need the kbd_dev for that. The dumb
backend already omits the "dev".

Just a direct mapping to X modifiers for now (= Shift, Control,
Lock, Mod1-5).
This gives us more flexibility to adapt it to our needs in the future.
Also we don't have to include libxkbcommon headers just for the modifier
definitions.

0 is actually a valid unicode value, so instead we use
KMSCON_INPUT_INVALID which is not legal unicode.

Just some renames/moving/prefixing to conform to the style of the

This commit introduces a new kmscon_input_event structure which is
delivered to the input consumer. The information provided is
- The evdev scancode (=physical keyboard key).
- The X keysym (a symbol representing what the typist really intended).
- The active modifiers (e.g. Shift, Control..)
- The unicode (UCS-4) value, when it makes sense.
To achieve this we add two dependencies:
- libxkbcommon (this entails xproto and kbproto, but shouldn't bring any of
big X dependencies)
- A function to translate keysyms to unicode values (taken from xlib,
copied in-tree).
libxkbcommon is not an all-around solution, and requires various degrees
of supporting code, depending on how much we wish to support. This
commit implements the common, basic uses:
- Choosing layouts, variants and options
- Switching groups
- Switching shift-levels
- Setting modifiers
Though some stuff is missing. Further information in the comments.
test_input.c is updated to use the new input event interface. You can
change the layouts in input.c:init_input() and see what works and what
doesn't.

It should:
- Capture your keypresses
- Announce when a device is added or removed (with --enable-debug)
- stop/start capturing on SIGQUIT (Ctrl-\)
