[Xcb] new "length" element needs a type?

[Tycho Andersen]

Hi,

There is a new length element for structs documented in c36dde3f4535
("Add element to specify expression that defines length of a struct")
with a first use introduced in f0db8b7d31a3 ("xinput: Add length
specification for DeviceClass struct"), but as near as I can tell
there's no type information for this, either in the docs or in this
particular usage.

Perhaps we should apply something like the below patch? Or is there
another way to figure this out that I've missed?

Thanks,

Tycho

Subject: [PATCH] xinput: specify type of length for DeviceClass

Most (all?) other expressions within elements have type information
derivable from a type or similar attribute. Let's do the same for length
elements.
