Subject: [PATCH] Xi: allocate enough XkbActions for our buttons

button->xkb_acts is supposed to be an array sufficiently large for all
our buttons, not just a single XkbActions struct. Allocating
insufficient memory here means when we memcpy() later in
XkbSetDeviceInfo we write into memory that wasn't ours to begin with,
leading to the usual security ooopsiedaisies.
