If the active set of modifiers doesn't match any explicit entry of the
key type, the resulting level is 0 (i.e. Level 1). Some key types don't
explicitly map Level 1, taking advantage of this fallback.
Previously, xkb_keymap_key_get_mods_for_level didn't consider this, and
only reported masks for explicit mappings. But this causes some glaring
omissions, like matching "a" in the "us" keymap returning not results.
Since every mask which isn't explicitly mapped falls back to 0, we can't
return the all. Almost always the best choice for this is the empty
mask, so return that, when applicable.

The new API is useful to implement features like auto-type and
desktop automation. Since the inputs for these features is usually
specified in terms of the symbols that need to be typed, the
implementation needs to be able to invert the keycode->keysym
transformation and produce a sequence of keycodes that can be used
to type the requested character(s).
Previously we included it with an `-include` compiler directive. But
that's not portable. And it's better to be explicit anyway.
Every .c file should have `include "config.h"` first thing.

xkb_keymap_key_by_name() allows finding a keycode from a given keyname and
is useful for generating keyboard events to use in regression tests
during CI
xkb_keymap_key_get_name() is the inverse of xkb_keymap_key_by_name()
