On every keymap notify event, the keymap should be refreshed, which
fetches the required X11 atoms. A big keymap might have a few hundred of
atoms.
A profile by a user has shown this *might* be slow when some intensive
amount of keymap activity is occurring. It might also be slow on a
remote X server.
While I'm not really sure this is the actual bottleneck, caching the
atoms is easy enough and only needs a couple kb of memory, so do that.
On the added bench-x11:
Before: retrieved 2500 keymaps from X in 11.233237s
After : retrieved 2500 keymaps from X in 1.592339s
