Added a new keymap compile options API: - `xkb_keymap_compile_options_new` - `xkb_keymap_compile_options_free` - `xkb_keymap_new_from_names2` - `xkb_keymap_new_from_file2` - `xkb_keymap_new_from_buffer2` This interface allows to configure keymap options that cannot be passed as flags.
Enable the configuration of out-of-range layout handling using the new function `xkb_keymap_compile_options_set_layout_out_of_range_action` and the corresponding new enumeration `xkb_keymap_out_of_range_layout_action`: - `XKB_KEYMAP_WRAP_OUT_OF_RANGE_LAYOUT`: wrap into range using integer modulus (default, as before). - `XKB_KEYMAP_REDIRECT_OUT_OF_RANGE_LAYOUT`: redirect to a specific layout index. - `XKB_KEYMAP_CLAMP_OUT_OF_RANGE_LAYOUT`: clamp into range, i.e. invalid indexes are corrected to the closest valid bound (0 or highest layout index). When not specified, invalid groups are brought into range using integer modulus.

In #487 I added keymap compile flags to configure the out-of-range group action, but it should be separate PR.
Note that I proposed previously:
xkb_keymap“immutable”.My (hopefully) last proposal is to introduce a keymap compile options API. This will give us also more flexibility to introduce options that cannot (or not easily) be configured by flags.
