Ray Strode c1f5e57f2b keymap-x11: Don't update key types when adding key to keymap
meta_keymap_x11_replace_keycode currently reports to the X server
that the key types data is changed when adding a key to the keymap.

It's not changed. The number of key types is the same, and none of
them are modified.

This has two bad side effects:

1) It sends all of the key types data into the request
2) It hits a bug in the X server leading to the request getting
rejected entirely.  See:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/761

Furthmore, the changed structure used to report to the X server
that the key types data is changed doesn't actually need to modified
at all in the function.  It's already prepped by libX11 with the
correct state for the changes mutter is doing when
XkbChangeTypesOfKey is called.

This commit addresses the above two problems by just removing the
lines causing the issues.

Mutter

Mutter is a Wayland display server and X11 window manager and compositor library.

When used as a Wayland display server, it runs on top of KMS and libinput. It implements the compositor side of the Wayland core protocol as well as various protocol extensions. It also has functionality related to running X11 applications using Xwayland.

When used on top of Xorg it acts as a X11 window manager and compositing manager.

It contains functionality related to, among other things, window management, window compositing, focus tracking, workspace management, keybindings and monitor configuration.

Internally it uses a fork of Cogl, a hardware acceleration abstraction library used to simplify usage of OpenGL pipelines, as well as a fork af Clutter, a scene graph and user interface toolkit.

Mutter is used by, for example, GNOME Shell, the GNOME core user interface, and by Gala, elementary OS's window manager. It can also be run standalone, using the command "mutter", but just running plain mutter is only intended for debugging purposes.

Git messages

Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message guidelines. We require an URL to either an issue or a merge request in each commit. Try to always prefix commit subjects with a relevant topic, such as compositor: or clutter/actor:, and it's always better to write too much in the commit message body than too little.

Default branch

The default development branch is main. If you still have a local checkout under the old name, use:

git checkout master
git branch -m master main
git fetch
git branch --unset-upstream
git branch -u origin/main
git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/main
