[PATCH 1/5] xkb: Post PointerKeys through the XTEST device.

Posting an event through a master device may cause pointer jumps once
lastSlave == master, caused by double scaling. To avoid this, post the fake
event generated by XKB through the XTEST device instead.

Fedora bug #560356 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/560356>
