Peter Hutterer 3711d68f65 Revert "XKB: Sanitise * actions" commits (#19602)
Reverts the following four patches:

feb757f384 "XKB: Sanitise vmods for redirected keys"
b5f49382fe "XKB: Sanitise ctrls action"
1bd7fd195d "XKB: Sanitise pointer actions"
61c508fa78 "XKB: Sanitise vmods in actions"

Strictly speaking, the structs used in the server are not part of the client
ABI. Practically, they are as we copy from the wire straight into the
structs. Changing the struct sizes breaks various wire/server conversions.

Even when the structs have the same size, some internal magic causes
conversions to fail. Visible by diffing the output files of:
setxkbmap -layout de; xkbcomp -xkb :0 busted.xkb
setxkbmap -layout de -print | xkbcomp -xkb - correct.xkb

Interestingly enough, busted.xkb is the working one although the output is
incorrect. Revert the four offending patches until the exact cause of this
breakage can be determined.

This patch restores functionality to Level3 modifiers.

The X server uses this directory to store the compiled version of the
current keymap and/or any scratch keymaps used by clients.  The X server
or some other tool might destroy or replace the files in this directory,
so it is not a safe place to store compiled keymaps for long periods of
time.  The default keymap for any server is usually stored in:
     X<num>-default.xkm
where <num> is the display number of the server in question, which makes
it possible for several servers *on the same host* to share the same 
directory.

Unless the X server is modified, sharing this directory between servers on
different hosts could cause problems.
