    backends/x11: Do not reload keymap on new keyboard notifications · b01edc22
    Carlos Garnacho authored
    XkbNewKeyboardNotify informs the client that there is a new keyboard
    driving the VCK. It is essentially meant to notify that the keyboard
    possibly has a different range of HW keycodes and/or a different
    geometry.
    
    But the translation of those keycodes remain the same, and we don't
    do range checks or geometry checks (beyond using KEY_GRAVE as "key
    under Esc", but that is hardly one). It seems we can avoid the
    busywork that is releasing all our passive grabs, reloading the keymap
    and regenerating the keycombos and restoring the passive grabs.
    
    Closes: #398
