  Description     : library interface to the XKB compiler

The idea is to get rid of the fork/exec xkbcomp in the X server, and
move that to a shared library; which can be reused, e.g. in wayland.

This is an experimental library, and it will likely break in horrible
ways in its early days. We should be able to keep that manageable thanks
to strong dependencies.
