Atoms: Avoid allocations in XkbAtomText() XkbAtomGetString() returns a freshly-allocated string, whereas XkbAtomText() returns the same in a temporary buffer. XkbAtomText used to call XkbAtomGetString() and then free the result, which seems quite spectacularly pointless when you think about it. Shuffle the atom code around so we don't have to allocate for XkbAtomText(). This changes semantics slightly wrt non-printable characters, but I haven't been able to see any effect so far. And it may well be ever so slightly quicker. Signed-off-by: Daniel Stone <daniel@fooishbar.org>
