xkb: Don't swap XkbSetGeometry data in the input buffer
The XkbSetGeometry request embeds data which needs to be swapped when the server and the client have different endianess. _XkbSetGeometry() invokes functions that swap these data directly in the input buffer. However, ProcXkbSetGeometry() may call _XkbSetGeometry() more than once (if there is more than one keyboard), thus causing on swapped clients the same data to be swapped twice in memory, further causing a server crash because the strings lengths on the second time are way off bounds. To allow _XkbSetGeometry() to run reliably more than once with swapped clients, do not swap the data in the buffer, use variables instead.
