Log message:
Fix problem in XkbInitKeyboardDeviceStruct(). Thanks to David Dawes for
telling about the problem, caused by a previous patch by me. I also added
a comment in the code explaining the reason the strings need to be
duplicated. The problem is that XkbInitKeyboardDeviceStruct() is an
"entry point" for xkb, and the function arguments are not guaranteed to
be allocated, they may point to static strings, command line parameters,
etc. In the worst case, there will be a "pseudo leak" of six strings that
are used only when the server is initialized; the strings are reachable
from xf86Info.xkbxxx, or equivalent data structure for xwin, xnest, etc.
