Olivier Fourdan 0e4ed94952 xkb: Fix buffer overflow in XkbChangeTypesOfKey() ...

If XkbChangeTypesOfKey() is called with nGroups == 0, it will resize the
key syms to 0 but leave the key actions unchanged.

If later, the same function is called with a non-zero value for nGroups,
this will cause a buffer overflow because the key actions are of the wrong
size.

To avoid the issue, make sure to resize both the key syms and key actions
when nGroups is 0.
