state: add xkb_state_key_get_{utf8,utf32}() API functions These functions generally have the same effect as xkb_state_key_get_syms() + xkb_keysym_to_utf{8,32}(). So why add them? - They provide a slightly nicer interface, especially if the string is the only interest. - It makes the handling of multiple-keysyms-to-utf8 transparent. For the designated use-case of multiple-keysyms (unicode combining characters), this is a must. We also validate the UTF-8, which the user might not otherwise do. - We will need to apply some transformation on the resulting string which depend on the xkb_state. This is not possible with the xkb_keysym_* functions. With these functions, the existing xkb_keysym_to_utf{8,32}() are not expected to be used by a typical user; they are "raw" functions.
