Hi,

I noticed some inconsistencies in the XKB security changes in Xlib.
Resending to the public list now that the embargo is lifted.

Here's another change I think is necessary:

This makes the checks against max_key_code consistent, and means the
GetNames reply gets checked even when names->keys was just allocated.
Running 'xset q' here under xtrace shows GetNames returning firstKey=8
nKeys=248, which would trip the original check with maxKeyCode=255.
GetMap seems to return firstVModMapKey=0 nVModMapKeys=0
totalVModMapKeys=0 though, so I don't know how to trigger the first
check.

Cheers,
Julien
