[PATCH app/xkbcomp v2] keycodes: Ignore high keycodes

Rather than throwing a fatal error when a keycode definition exceeds the
declared maximum (i.e. 255), just ignore the definition and continue.
This allows xkeyboard-config to start shipping datasets including high
keycodes, which will work in xkbcommon as it ignores explicit range
declarations.
